Pepe Saya's Aussie Artisan Week

Overview

For the next seven days, renowned Aussie butter producer Pepe Saya is giving us a full-flavoured reminder to keep celebrating and supporting our homegrown food heroes. Heading up the new Aussie Artisan Week, which debuts from Monday, August 17 to Sunday, August 23, it's setting out to raise awareness about the benefits of shopping local, especially during these tough pandemic times.

Right across the week, Pepe Saya is spreading the local love and encouraging you to check out some of this country's fine artisan producers. The company's Instagram is featuring stories from a raft of its favourite food businesses — and you'll find a growing directory of artisans over on its website complete with handy links to where to buy their wares. There are plenty of more familiar faces like Crumpets by Merna, Schulz Organic Dairy, Cobb Lane Bakery and Gundowring Ice Cream, alongside others perhaps yet to be discovered — think, cheese from Queensland's Frolicking Goat and hormone-free meat from Linga Longa.

What's more, you can share your own food finds on socials via #AussieArtisanWeek. Shop the directory, cook up a storm and tag your creations in support of our hard-working Aussie producers.
