Along the way you’ll meet the growers, producers, researchers and innovators building stronger local food systems, exploring whenua, community, education, growing and energy — discovering how local action can strengthen communities for generations to come.

How do we build a food system that can nourish people and the planet for generations to come? Explore food resilience through the lenses of whenua, community, tourism, education, growing, energy and circularity.

Our tour starts by bus from Frankton into Queenstown and aboard the historic steamship TSS Earnslaw to Walter Peak High Country Farm, visiting inspiring local initiatives, meeting the people driving change and discovering practical ideas for creating thriving, locally connected food systems.

We encourage Wānaka participants to carpool to Frankton.
