Congratulations to the GourMay team and wonderful volunteers, participants, sponsors and all who made this possible!

Congratulations to GourMay Mary Valley Food Festival on being proudly awarded the Slow Food Noosa and Surrounds Snail of Approval.
This is because of the inspiration that the GourMay month-long festival has provided for the farmers and producers in delivering good, clean, fresh and fair food in a sustainable manner.
The award highlights the benefits of nutrition-rich food that is proud to label its place of origin and which is distributed fresh because of the low mileage involved.
There is an authenticity to the farmers of the Mary Valley and the GourMay festival, now heading into its fifth year, has been proactive in providing support to local producers, and raising awareness about the benefits of healthy soil and healthy food.
