The 2017 South Coast Field Days are a celebration of Traditional Skills and Useful Crafts with demonstrations and workshops conducted by country friendly craftspeople and artisans. The Field Days kick off this September: Saturday the 23rd through Sunday the 24th, the first weekend of the school holidays. Main events will be held at the Cobargo Show Grounds with a bush dance Saturday nightat the Cobargo School of Arts Hall. Organisers invite local food growers and local food chefs to be part of the locavore challenge. Contestants will be given a mystery bag of local food on Saturday and they have until Sunday lunch time to produce a spectacular meal for lucky people who will be served the food in the Speakers tent. Food has to be cooked in a commercial kitchen but it doesn’t have to be professional chefs. More info at http://southcoastfielddays.com.au/
