A Truly Unique Experience at The Truffle Farm - Private Probus Event
2025-10-19 17:30 - 19:30 | The Truffle Farm Activity Barn, 420 Lowrys Rd, Parksville, British Columbia, V9P2P5, Canada
Upon arrival, you’ll be warmly welcomed by Peter and Virginia, the proud owners of The Truffle Farm. Your journey begins in the cozy Truffle Barn with a light refreshment as you settle in and meet your fellow guests.
Once everyone has arrived, we’ll begin a guided walking tour of the Truffle Plantations, led by Peter and King Cesar—our experienced truffle hunters. This 30-minute stroll will immerse you in the fascinating world of truffle hunting, sharing stories from the field and the history of how our farm came to life.
After the tour, we return to the Truffle Barn to freshen up and dive into a hands-on culinary session: crafting your very own truffle cheese balls. This interactive experience is a fun and flavorful way to learn how to cook with truffles. You’ll package your creation to take home, while setting aside a portion for our tasting event.
Next, we gather around our long tables for a curated charcuterie tasting, where you’ll explore various pairings of truffles with different food groups. This is your opportunity to discover how truffles can elevate everyday ingredients and dishes. Share stories and ask foodie questions.
As the experience winds down, you’ll leave not only with your handmade truffle cheese ball, but also with a collection of recipes to inspire your own truffle creations at home.
From start to finish, this immersive experience at The Truffle Farm is designed to delight your senses, deepen your culinary knowledge, and leave you with unforgettable memories.
