Taste Coly… Food & Farm Festival BALLOONS Celebrated international foodie, Rebecca Sullivan, will be the highly anticipated guest speaker at one of the Riverina’s premier events for 2014, the Taste Coleambally Food and Farm Festival on Sunday June 1st. WILL DO As the ambassador for the Taste Riverina Festival in 2013, Rebecca was greatly impressed with the region; it’s passion for food and doing things “the way Grandma used to”. The author of the acclaimed Like Grandma Used to Make, Rebecca also launched the Real Food Festival in London, worked on Slow Food Nation in San Francisco, as well as coffee farming in Uganda and teaching scientists the art of communications in the Maldives for the United Nations. She has also appeared regularly on TODAY and The Circle. Having recently re-settled back in Australia, Rebecca launched Dirty Girl Kitchen, a community-supported cooperative inspiring women to be more in touch with the land and old crafts, known as “the granny movement” and is excited to return to the region for the Taste Coleambally Food and Farm Festival. Festival organizer, Julie Bellato said the committee are thrilled to have Rebecca speaking at the much anticipated, 50 Mile Taste Coly meal, sponsored by Ingredion. Rebecca will be interacting with the community, producers and farmers over the course of the festival and will MC Coleambally’s very own version of My Kitchen Rules: The Coly Cook-Off for kids and adults, beginning 1.30pm Sunday 1st June at the Coleambally Community Club. There will be markets, photo opportunities with cute animals and John Deere Tractors, “Meet the Artisans” and art displays, home cooking and coffee to sample, fun activities for the kids and lots more.
