A simple Ratatouille made while camping at the Flying Fox with organic Tomatoes, Zucchini, Red Onions and Kumara (sweet potato) from Annette’s garden, served with a fresh green Mescalin salad. I was inspired by Annette’s homemade vinaigrettes, and used fresh Strawberries and Manuka Honey in the dressing. Also served with Annette’s home-made multigrain sourdough bread.

The couple have built a number of beautiful private dwellings on the property, established a flourishing organic garden and sustainable energy and composting system, and in general have created an idyllic setting for relaxation, a model for sustainable living, and and appreciation of the Whanganui River.
