Experience the magic of sustainable dining as FareShare chefs and Wonki mixologists unite for two unforgettable nights at the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival. In the heart of Abbotsford, these culinary talents will take you on a journey, transforming rescued ingredients into a spectacular three-course meal, paired with innovative Wonki drink creations, FareShare operates Australia’s two largest charity kitchens in Melbourne and Brisbane. Every day, chefs and volunteers transform rescued and homegrown food into thousands of delicious, nutritious meals for people who need them most. These are given away free to frontline charities such as soup vans, homeless shelters, women’s refuges, First Nations organisations, and groups providing disaster relief.
