Yum In My Tum

Happy Easter everyone! 🐰While you might be enjoying some delish chocky eggs today, just a reminder that the Little Food Festival is on this week, Wednesday 20 & Thursday 21 April, 10am–3pm. 🍏

As Australia’s only dedicated food festival for kids, the festival features heaps of workshops, activities, performances, cooking demonstrations and more, all designed to teach kids about our food systems and how they connect to the health of our bodies and the environment.

They can:
🧶 Get involved in a craft workshop with Melbourne artist Beci Orpin and Kip&Co
🚛 Learn about food miles in a fun game with Monash University educators.
🌱 Plant seedlings with Bunnings Warehouse Australia
🌯 Make tasty rice paper rolls with Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Foundation or learn about traditional African produce with The United African Farm.

And heaps more …

🥪 Don’t forget to stop by the Farmers Market for delicious treats!
