New to this year's program is a focus on unique kids activities throughout the day including the wonderful Wild stories: the heroes and villain in our kitchen vegetable sculpture drop-in workshop inviting kids to create stories using common food where potatoes and the humble carrot become superheroes and fairies. Led by food adventurer Diego Bonetto aka The Weedy One, playing with food has never been so much fun.
Kids are also invited to sample forgotten flavours and lost techniques in cordial making workshop where they can make their own lemon 'sherbet' from a recipe dating back to 1816, and try their hand at folding a lotus flower napkin as featured in the 1907 edition of Mrs Beeton's Guide to Household Management. Get crafty with a creative collage workshop designed by artist Alice Lindstrom and inspired by Elizabeth Farm's colonial kitchen.
