Eat New Zealand Presents ConversatioNZ.

Eat New Zealand has launched a new series of online ‘ConversatioNZ’ covering all aspects of our food system, through the diverse voices and perspectives of our food industry whānau.

So much has happened in the last five years. Eat New Zealand has transformed into a national food collective dedicated to connecting people to our land, through our food. We continue to work to reimagine a more resilient and sustainable future while seeking to provide a forum to encourage collaboration and a sense of community between all levels of the culinary chain.

We want these conversations to start new ones, to challenge previous thinking, to educate, to connect and to bring hope for the future of food in Aotearoa.

Throughout the series we will hear from a host of producers, creative, change makers and vision holders at the heart of NZ food - from farmers, catchers and makers to chefs, media, tourism operators, eaters and everyone in between.
