There aren’t many truly seasonal products but cherries are one of those fruits that only appear as the weather warms up. By January they are more or less gone again. For me, they are more exciting than Christmas.

Andrew Fairley is a lawyer and cherry farmer. Yarra Valley Cherries is home to 20,000 trees that provide up to 200 tonnes of cherries every year. This will be Andrew’s 10th harvest on this farm but he is honouring a multi-generational heritage as a fruit producer.

After losing her business during Covid, Genevieve Muir spent more time in the kitchen cooking the food of her West African heritage. Keen to master a prized condiment, she spent months tweaking the recipe until her extended family approved. And now, Coast of Gold Shitto is on shelves across the country.

Welcome to the final episode in our miniseries collaboration between Producers podcast and AgriCULTURED, a festival which showcases and connects the produce and people of northern Tasmania, or Lutruwita as it’s called in Aboriginal culture.

So far, we’ve heard from duck farmer Bec Rumble, vegetable grower Wouter Sels, winemaker Linda Morice and finally we’re chatting to Annette Reed from Tasmanian Natural Garlic and Tomatoes. With her husband Nevil, she farms tomatoes and garlic half an hour from Launceston.

Welcome to the third collaboration between Deep in the Weeds’ Producers podcast and AgriCULTURED, a festival which showcases and connects the produce and people of northern Tasmania, or Lutruwita as it’s called in Aboriginal culture. This is a special part of the world, with beautiful, fertile lands, true seasons, and rich traditions. So far, we’ve heard from duck farmer Bec Rumble, vegetable grower Wouter Sels and today we’re talking to winemaker Linda Morice, of Sinapius.

Sinapius is in the Pipers Brook wine region, north of Launceston and inland from Bass Strait. It’s a closely-planted vineyard, with mostly pinot noir, chardonnay and gamay, produced with low intervention techniques to express the region. 

Working this land and living in this community has been a story of determination, strong values, tragedy and resilience.

Today, we meet Wouter Sels from Seven Springs Farm. Wouter farms pretty, hilly country nestled in forest almost two hours west of Launceston. Born into a Belgian farming family, Wouter, his wife and their three young children live off-grid, feeding themselves and supplying the community and a select group of chefs with delicious and nutritious produce. Life is somewhat isolated, but it’s rich in connection.

Welcome to the third collaboration between Deep in the Weeds’ Producers podcast and AgriCULTURED, a festival which showcases and connects the produce and people of northern Tasmania, or Lutruwita as it’s called in Aboriginal culture. This is a special part of the world, with beautiful, fertile lands, true seasons, and rich traditions. Many farmers are on generational properties but others - like today’s guest - are producer newbies. 

Our first podcast in this series is with duck farmer Bec Rumble, from Lone Goose Farm in the Meander Valley. Like many small farmers in northern Tassie, she’s a corporate escapee from the ‘big island’, having moved from Melbourne with her husband Paul, and learning a lot about Muscovy ducks very, very quickly. Join us as we meet their ‘lone goose’ Gayle and hear a fascinating farming story.

Narie Preston owns the delightfully named Wot’s Ya Caper, a caper and caperberry farm in Bealiba in central Victoria. Narie and her partner Mark didn’t plan to get into capers but somehow this curious plant found them and turned their retirement into a period of dawn rising and hard toil. They’re busy growing, picking and processing a crop that turns into a product they love for its versatility, nourishment and opportunity to share and communicate.
