Organic food focus at Life Synergy Expo

Expo Focus on healthy living, families and good local seasonal produce.
This weekends premiere health and wellbeing event, the Life Synergy Expo, at Millbrook Resort on Sunday the 14th of March will be a showcase of organic and locally sourced foods through a series of afternoon cooking demonstrations.

Millbrook Resort Executive chef, Russell Heron, will present a range of food and dishes especially prepared for family style eating in the Clubhouse Restaurant between 12pm and 4pm.

“ I will be cooking dishes focusing on healthy, quick family meals using in particular seasonal produce which when in season not only tastes great but is often at its cheapest and so therefore good for family budgets,” says Russell.

“ For our busy life styles these days no one wants to spend all day in the kitchen preparing meals. We are fortunate to have our own herb and vegetable garden here at Millbrook so I will also be showcasing some of the lovely fresh ingredients direct from the garden.”

Growing healthy families will be part of the afternoon cooking demonstration theme with Millbrook Resort Pastry chef, Sadie Richens, who is also pregnant, presenting some pregnancy dishes and sweet treats.

Guest speaker and Ayurvedic specialist Dr S Ajit from Planet Ayurveda Wellness Centre and Spa will present a session on cooking with traditional Ayurvedic ingredients for total wellbeing.

The Hole in One cafe at Millbrook Resort will feature a diverse menu from healthy dietary options through to lovely sweets, cakes and pastries
Life Synergy Expo will be open from 9am - 4pm featuring over 50 exhibitors, specialist speakers and family entertainment. Entry by gold coin.
