If you are looking for a nice day trip or weekend break over the next
month can I suggest passing through Orange during Frost Fest? The full program
of events can be found on the Taste Orange page and bookings are recommended.
However, if you would prefer my top picks, here they are:
Pinholes and Pinot at De SalisWines – what better place for
a local pinhole camera photography exhibition than in a cellar door! Sip on new
vintage De Salis wines (I’ve tried them and they are v.good) whilst perusing
the exhibition and mingling with the movers and shakers of Orange (at least
myself and Mr L’Orange will be there!). Picture have been taken by Orange local Jude Keogh.
Date: Friday 3rd
August from 7pm – 10pm is the launch party
The exhibition runs for
the whole of Frost Fest if you can’t make the launch.
Dress: extra warm as at
the cellar door gets cold.

Apple Pie and Mulled Cider at Small Acres Cyder
For $8 you can have your fill of apple goodness in both a pastry and
alcoholic form – again the perfect combination and certain to keep the doctor
away. From past experience these food and cider events are mega popular so book
a spot to avoid disappointment.

There are plenty of other food, wine and log fire type experiences at
wineries all over Orange during Frost Fest, it is just a matter of what
deciding how much you want to spend and how formal you want to make things.
Notice my Scottish roots coming through as both my picks are free or cheap?

Anyway, grab some friends and make an effort to head this way at the start of
August if you have some free time.
If you need more to do
during your visit, take a look at some of these former LALO posts:
