Sarah fixed August, Bec asked food stories and David monitored the levels (mostly).

Sarah Meikle is Lead/Organiser/Chief Executive for Visa Welly On A Plate, one of NZ's largest food festivals. This year's event runs over 17 days and 100 venues from 11-27 August across the Wellington (North Island New Zealand) region. Sarah joined Bec Stewart to share the inside track on the event, it's history and development from small beginnings in 2009, and insight into NZ's wider food story, culture and identity.
