Today (22nd November 2009) was the Bio Dynamic festival in Pickering Brook. High Vale Orchard invited local food and drink producers to come and show off their Bio Dynamic produce to the local people of Perth.
Many Perth locals turned up to the festival and although it was a tight squeeze, it was great to see so many families interacting with local producers and learning about what it is to be Bio Dynamic and what makes their beef or wines so unique.
After the event we went to Kalamunda to the farmers market to a bit of food shopping before the market closed (Kalamunda farmers market runs every Sunday from 8am to 1pm). The market had a real buzz from people coming from the Bio Dynamic Festival and seeking out more local, organic produce.

Our favourite this year was the Pizzas made by the chefs from Slow Food Perth. We ordered a fresh Aldersyde Asparagus & Pumkin pizza which was wonderfully fresh and tasted soooooo good!
We cant wait until next year when we can taste the same foods but wash it down with some of High Vale’s own Cider!
