- Click on the link to read Jill's latest blog post. Jill has been running FoodPath in the Southern Highlands of NSW with her partner Nick since April 2010. They have grown the business to a level where they now include a range of activities including tours, workshops and collaboration with others (cooking schools, wineries, etc). During the past 10 years Jill and Nick have got to know the local producers and continue to promote and support these local small businesses. They have organised and run many food related activities including taste education workshops and producer visits. It was after they organised a successful tour for a group of chefs from some of the best restaurants in Sydney that they realised they could turn their interest into a business - and this led to the setting up of FoodPath - Culinary Tours with a Difference. Now Jill and Nick are working closely with Southern Highlands Tourism and Wingecarribee Council to help raise the profile of their area as a food destination where everyone will benefit - tourists, local consumers and the producers themselves.

Meet for coffee in town while we assemble our group together; then come with us for a journey through the lush green countryside that is the Southern Highlands! First we might visit a berry farm to pick some raspberries, blackberries or blueberries when they are in season.
On to a free range egg farm to meet the wonderful owners and their Maremma dogs who watch over the chooks and protect them from foxes.
Relax over a delicious lunch at a nearby winery then on to some local artisan cheese makers. Award winning cheese makers, no less!
We might wind up with afternoon tea in a lovely old cheese factory complex where you can explore further if you still have the energy!
This is a sample of what a tour might include. It varies with the seasons of course.
Starting April 2010. Tell your friends!
