We are so passionate about organic food at Taste Nature that we have created our own wine and food festival called Taste Organic Otago – Commencing on Friday 15th October, and running through till Sunday 31st October.

Taste Otago have invited key Central Otago wineries to collaborate with Dunedin and Central Otago restaurants to create an exclusive wine and food match. For the festival period, each restaurant will offer a menu dish that comprises of organic ingredients to be matched to an organic wine from some of New Zealand’s top certified organic wineries in Central Otago.

Their key theme for this festival is to raise awareness for consumers on Regenerative Organics and how it can minimise the effects of Climate Change. Regenerative agriculture practices hit at the heart of some of our biggest environmental challenges – restoring the quality of our waterways, increasing carbon sequestration in our soils, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, improving food quality and safety, and allowing healthy ecosystems to flourish. Improved profitability in farming is now possible because of improved stewardship of our land and water. We want our suppliers and consumers to help shift Aotearoa to a regenerative economy.

Now is the time for our society to think very seriously about how and where our food comes from. Everyone one of us has the potential to change, by supporting organic regenerative we are making a start on this journey together.
