Keep track of events in the Australian vegetable industry using the AUSVEG calendar. If you have an event you’d like listed, use our contact form to get in touch.
Events listed in bold are part of the National Vegetable Extension Network (VegNET), a strategic levy investment project under the Hort Innovation Vegetable Fund which is communicating research and development information to Australian growers.
The Australian Native Foods and Botanicals (ANFAB) roadshow is coming to Victoria, with a Growing the Growers workshop set to explore the potential of native produce.
ANFAB’s farm co-operatives and collaboration roadshow is bringing together growers (and aspiring growers), chefs, retailers and Australia’s first peoples to explore all things related to native produce, including native vegetables.
Attendees at the forum will learn about the latest information on business models and value chain collaboration, hear the most recent news on potential emerging overseas markets, and get connected with a network of the region’s native food growers. To register for the event, visit its EventBrite page.
AUSVEG attended the ANFAB event in Adelaide late last year, and spoke with consumer research agency Colmar Brunton about their levy-funded project investigating the potential domestic market for native vegetables and other native produce. To read about the research into this potential growth market, see page 28 of the January/February edition of Vegetables Australia magazine.
