As we celebrate the internationally renowned season for the Manjimup black truffle the spotlight is on the wealth of great producers in the region. From meat and dairy to vegetables, fruit, nuts, wine and of course truffles, the Truffle Kerfuffle has a festival wide commitment to celebrate produce from the Southern Forests region. Local, national and international guest chefs to the festival are excited by the produce that they’ve got the opportunity to cook with and have a strong belief in the importance of agricultural communities like the Southern Forests. Come along and enjoy some of the many amazing events and experiences on offer throughout the festival weekend. Dark Delights Dinner Join George Cooper from Food by the Chef for a dinner of dark delights at Southern Roasting Co.

The Festival Village Get your truffle fix by eating your way through the Festival Village where there is a bounty of truffles, gourmet food, premium wine, cider and local produce on offer to eat straight away or enjoy at home. Meet the local producers and families responsible for bringing you fresh, local, Genuinely Southern Forests produce as you enjoy live music and entertainment throughout the Festival Village. A Winters Night Michelin star chef Sam Aisbett started his culinary journey in his family's butchery business, where he developed an inherent love for food and a respect for those who produce it. Sam will be showcasing Manjimup truffles harvested minutes from Fonty’s Pool at The Truffle and Wine Co. in a candlelit celebration of local produce, truffles and wine. Truffle Hunts It's pretty rare for truffieres to invite guests to experience the harvesting of fresh truffle, but there's nothing quite like seeing firsthand the highly trained dogs unearthing the rare black truffle amongst the oak and hazelnut trees. For a true paddock to plate experience, truffle hunting is a must to meet the truffle dogs and learn about all aspects of truffles.
