New year, new foodie adventure 🎆🍅 Shhhhh 😉😋

We've had a number of people asking how they can get involved in Nosh. We'll be having an AGM in November and we'd love to have people along if they're super committed. The last committee met weekly for an hour or two and every single member worked hard to ensure the success of the event. Of course there is the next food festival #NoshNarrabri2019 however we are also thinking about throwing together a huge dinner or long lunch next year. This year's committee had people from all sorts of diverse backgrounds all united by a common interest in food plus a willingness to run with ideas and get things done. If that's you then let us know.

NOSH PHOTOS ARE NOW LIVE!!! Check them out here --> https://www.noshnarrabri.com.au/photos-summary-2017/ A BIG thank you to our two very talented volunteer photographers who were busily capturing the vibe and energy of Nosh throughout the day and night. Janet M Dampney and Elizabeth McPhee are members of the Northwest Photography group - a group of local, passionate photographers (ranging from amateur to advanced skill levels) who travel the region on day outings and night adventures to practice their skills, build their portfolios and have fun meeting up with new friends. If you have an interest in photography and want to get involved, make sure to reach out to these wonderful ladies - it's a lot of fun!!

This time last week we had 600 people dancing & singing the night away at our 'Nosh On' concert, following the very popular food & wine expo that same day. What an incredible weekend!!! We loved seeing so many people there enjoying the day events, the concert and the Nosh Long Lunch. The committee came together with the shared mission to gather our amazing community, so we can all enjoy the food, beverages & musical talent that is rich within our region.. and that's exactly what happened thanks to all those who came along and supported it 😃 Can't thank our sponsors & supporters enough. We are so lucky to live in such a vibrant and generous community. #noshnarrabri #narrabri

The BBQ Cook-Off was an absolute hit!!! Congratulations to The Teachers who took home the win - Georgie Stoltenberg (St Xavier's) and Ell John (Narrabri Public). Big thanks to Shanna Whan (the wonderful MC) and the all-important judges - David Pierce (Authentic Trademarks), Annie Alexander (Santos) and Wanda Dunnet (The Courier). And of course, thanks so much to the other talented Cook-Off contenders - the Ambos, the Nurses, the Rugby Blue Boars and the Tatts Cricketers. You all did an amazing job and made the judges' decision a very difficult (but delicious) one! 🍔🥗🍽 #noshnarrabri #noshnarrabri2017 @ Nosh Narrabri
