Tweed Hinterland Food & Drink

Leaving the Gold Coast behind, you’ll be amazed by how quickly the urban jungle morphs into the rolling farmlands of the Tweed Valley in the northeastern corner of New South Wales. Their first stop will be at an organic family farm and cafe where they’ll take a walk around the picturesque property, visit a friendly pig, pick some sunflowers, and perhaps crack some delicious local macadamias, depending on the season.

Set on an avocado farm nearby is Earth Beer Company, a community-focused boutique brewery overlooking iconic Wollumbin (Mount Warning). They’ll take a tour of the rustic brewery and sample its tasty beers (with other options available for those who don’t enjoy beer) before heading to Husk Distillery just down the road.

On a tour of this innovative rum and gin distillery, you’ll learn all about Husk’s Australia-first method of making rum from local sugar cane before trying its spirits for yourself. Set on a sugar cane farm with cracking views of Wollumbin and a gourmet cellar door menu, Husk is the ultimate destination for a long, lazy lunch. So that’s exactly what they’re going to be doing here before they drop you back to the Gold Coast by 5.30 pm.
