Are You Bug Curious? | Family Friendly Bug Eating Expo | 2 Oct 2017

Entomophagy ˌɛntəˈmɒfədʒi/ – the practice of eating insects for food.

Insects are eaten in 80% of the world’s countries.  If you’re bug curious why not head along to this public entomophagy expo to find out why the rest of the world is “bugging out” for bugs!

Beyond being a regular game show prop, bugs should be a serious part of our future food conversation. Nutritious and sustainable, the research clearly shows that entomophagy is something that the western world needs to consider to be able to manage the growing population and increasing demands on natural resources.

At this event you will be able to:

  • Meet Australia’s passionate bug eaters, farmers and enthusiasts
  • Understand how insects are farmed commercially
  • Learn about the financial, environmental and health benefits of insects as feed and food
  • Sample a range of insects and insect based products
  • Kid friendly activities – bug crafts, live insects
  • Learn about matching insects with wine (over 18 yrs age only). Organic Wines by Angove Wines. Cost: $5

Tickets: Adults $10 | Children under 15 Free
