agriCULTURED is an Agri-Food Festival held in the north of Tasmania, 1st to 4th August 2024.
agriCULTURED is where Tasmania’s rich agricultural heritage meets the beat of innovation. It’s a gathering of mavericks and traditionalists, industry professionals, academics and passionate foodies, hobbyists, artists and musicians, each one disrupting the status quo while honouring the land and those who tend to it.

The Journey
The Journey will head into the southern part of the region, close to Relbia and Evandale. Starting with a Farming Yarn on Country, participants will have the chance to learn more about healing country and the cultural practices used over thousands of years through the voices of Tasmanian Aboriginal Community members.
The conversation will be shared with the farmer, who will discuss their knowledge and their practices. Share Indigenous food over morning tea and immerse yourself in a space where ‘knowledge’ meets ‘knowledge’.
Following the Farming Yarn, we will then move to Harland Rise, where we will continue discussing the importance of land management and food production. A panel session chaired by Caroline Brown (Chair agriCULTURED), including Luke Mabb (Australian Association for Bush Adventure Therapy), and Larna Pittiglio (Heartlands Tasmania, & Tasmanian Produce Collective), will talk through the importance of local food production, and the land management ingredients needed to produce great food.
You will have the chance to learn more about the restoration of the Chapel and the accommodation available. A grazing table curated by Larna Pittiglio and featuring local produce and lamb sourced from Harland Rise, is a bookable experience that can be enjoyed over lunch whilst we enjoy music from Katy Humphries + Mick Attard.
