Taste your way through New England High Country
Enjoy a bounty of delicious locally-grown produce, award-winning cool climate wines, and locally brewed and distilled delights!
Lamb and beef raised here have long been sought after by chefs and specialist butchers across the state and further afield. Grazing on the region’s lush pastures, it seems, produces exceptionally tender and succulent cuts of meat. So be sure to treat yourself to a meal at one of our fabulous restaurants, cafes or hearty country pubs or pick up something from the local butcher to enjoy during your stay or fill your esky.
Around the region, you’ll discover a growing number of boutique producers creating delectable artisanal foods – perfect for popping into your picnic basket!
Orchards flourish in our high-altitude climate. In season, you can buy freshly-picked berries, apples and stone fruits from farm gates and local markets, or head out of town to pick your own – a popular activity for families with children.
Many of our towns also hold regular farmer’s markets, providing the perfect opportunity to meet local producers, bakers, makers and creators and delight in all they have to offer.
