Kai for Community & Waiheke Homemade Chilli Sauce Fest

About this Event

Join us for a free family-friendly celebration of Waiheke’s food heritage, past, present and future. Enjoy produce competitions, demonstrations, workshops, talks, tastings, stories, food stalls, games for tamariki and music! This thoroughly nourishing festival for all ages showcases the island’s culinary richness, and includes the Homemade Chilli Sauce Fest at Wild Estate from 1 – 3pm, a fantastic showcase of Waiheke’s homemade chili sauces, salsas, jams and chutneys.

Entry to the chili sauce competition is open to any Waiheke person making something homemade – there are several categories, but the main thing is to include chillies! You don’t have to grow your own, but if you do you get bragging rights. Judging is by public vote, which is also free entry.
