About Us...
- Jill Dyson,

- 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.

We are looking forward to July with 5 tours planned - it is going to be busy!
Wed 7 July is our very first Mushroom Tunnel Tour (see the Tours page of our website for details).
Tues 13 July is another new tour - the Croissants, Raspberries and Cheese Tour.
Both of these tours are available in 2 options - but I recommend you take the longer tour if you can because you have a greater experience and can relax and enjoy it.
Wed 14 and Fri 16 July we have a special School Holiday Tour to a free range poultry farm. Again details are on the website and I do have a flyer if you would like one for your school, day care centre or playgroup? Just let me know and I can email one to you.
Sat 17 July is our regular popular Sat tour again. This time we are going to see some basic cheese making as well as the interesting talk and cheese tasting. Do you know how to taste cheese as the cheese judges do? Come along and learn.
Bookings are under way so please let us know soon if you would like to come to any of these tours.
Look out for our Walking Food Tour in Bowral, due to start in August. This will take you to the many specialty food shops in Bowral with a rest in the middle while we enjoy a relaxed long table lunch.
