Went to the Collingwood Farmers Market for the first time on Saturday.  There were a few meat producers I wanted to check out, like Warialda Belted Galloway Beef and Hook & Spoon.  Had read about Hook & Spoon and liked their ethos.  Would like to see these guys twittering more as we're interested in learning more about their produce and how their day is made up. 
Had my hands full with Bowie, so could only grab a few items.  Brought back some Mutton Backstraps which we tried as a lunch special today.  Man, the Mutton was so tender.  Also grabbed some Royal Blue Potatoes from Jones Potatoes(had a pretty good selection there), so Nitish whipped up a Mutton Forrest Garniture w Pepperberry Spice. The plan is to get to a farmers market each weekend and learn more about the regions & it's produce. Bring back some new goods and give it to our MacGyver in the kitchen, Nitish and see what we can make. 





Here's a little vid of the Collingwood Farmers Market.
