100-Miles for Orange... As we become increasingly aware of our impact on the environment in our everyday lives, the catch-cry of local not global resonates. Our region has embraced the 100-Mile Diet concept to promote sustainability, economic prosperity and to teach city dwellers the joy of eating seasonally and locally.
100-Mile Diet The 100-Mile Diet concept originated in Canada where a couple pledged to eat only produce that came from within a 160km radius of their home town for 12 months. The 100-Mile Diet is about getting to know the seasons, understanding where food comes from, and at what risk to our health and to the environment. Arguably there are fewer regions in Australia than Orange better placed to enjoy a rich and rewarding 100-Mile eating experience.Our bounty extends from a vast array of meats, fruit, berries and vegetables, to flour, nuts, cheese, milk, eggs and even truffles. Oh, and of course wine. To taste food in season is an experience not to be missed and we invite you to visit our Farmer's Markets, providores, butcher shops and farm gates to start your own local journey. To help you plan your diet, download the 100-Mile Diet Directory.
Several key attractions surrounding Orange are within 100-Miles and an easy day trip during your stay. These are our 'locals' and we encourage you to stay a while longer and enjoy what these attractions offer. |
