IT was a perfect day to Celebrate Glasshouse Country with a long lunch at Yanalla Farms on Saturday. Under warm winter skies about 120 people dined between rows of lychee trees, enjoying some of the finest produce available in the region, as part of The Curated Plate Festival. A farm tour of Karen and Robert’s gorgeous Yanalla Farms, a lychee cocktail to meeting local farmers and learning more about the amazing innovation and work they put in to their agri-businesses made for a very relaxing day out.
A banquet between the lychee trees, delivered by chefs Dan Penfold, Zac & Kelly of Penfolds Catering was not only a visual feast, but delicious. Sunshine Coast Foodie, Martin Duncan, brought the day together brilliantly with effervescent hosting and a genuine passion for supporting local producers.
