Producer Experiences

Make it a weekend to remember

Across Saturday and Sunday, TrailGraze brings together a thought provoking brunch event and a series of relaxed, bookable producer experiences across North West Tasmania.

Saturday morning begins with Food for Thought at Ghost Rock Vineyard, exploring the science and innovation behind what we grow, make and pour. Throughout the weekend, twelve producers host timed activations – everything from tastings and guided tours to hands-on experiences like grape stomping, many of them family friendly.

Join one event or plan your whole weekend around it. Scroll down to explore all producer experiences on offer!
