After pick-ups (see below), we will travel South to Te Puke Truffles, recently seen on Country Calendar. You will be given a talk on the background of the venue & truffle growing.

The venue only has 212 trees, so is quite a small truffière [truffle orchard] but it keeps the owners, Maureen & Colin, very busy.

After visiting truffières around the North Island, the couple planted more than 200 oak and hazelnut trees in 2008. Colin estimates about 50 tonnes of lime was added to the soil to bring up the pH (alkalinity) level before planting out the half-hectare truffière.

You will have a delicious variety of tasty experiences over a light lunch incorporating truffles. There will be an optional tasting of truffled beer.
