About Truffle Kerfuffle

Black truffle grown in the Southern Forest region of Western Australia equals its European counterparts in fragrance and flavour. This fact has been the impetus for Truffle Kerfuffle that celebrates our place at the centre of Australia’s truffle industry and as a showcase for the regions food and wine. In January 2011, 20 local truffle farmers and their supporters held a meeting to gauge support for a truffle festival and toss around a few ideas. Five years later, Truffle Kerfuffle’s membership still comprises local producers and supporters. Based at the historic Fonty’s Pool outside Manjimup, Truffle Kerfuffle truly celebrates the produce and people of the Southern Forests.
