Creative Arts Spectacular is excited to have Bunnyconnellen Wines as our supplier for our Gala Award Night. You will be able to meet the growers of this fine wine and olive products, and take home some of their amazing produce.
Bunnyconnellen ('convivial pleasures') specialises in the growing and value-adding of premium quality olives for the production of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), table olives, olive related products and other gourmet foods. We also own a small vineyard which helps feed our passion for simple and easily drunk wines. We focus on quality and innovative foods grown or sourced locally by us. Our enduring guiding principle remains; that the better things in life are worth waiting for and accordingly should not be rushed. It's a philosophy you can taste in all our products including our 'Chalk Board' menu, which we prepare ourselves from family recipes and with the finest of ingredients.
Bunnyconnellen Olive Grove and Vineyard was established during 1996 and nestles amongst the gentle rolling hills of the Darling Downs close to Crow's Nest, and it's surrounding National Parks and dams. A relaxed, and pleasurable 45 minutes drive North from Toowoomba, along the New England Highway via Hampton and Crow's Nest, will see you to our front door.
The property's name can be traced back to it's origins in Ireland and translated from the Gaelic, means Connellen's thicket. The old dairy farm was originally the largest in the district having initially been settled in the late 1800s. It is now a less significant 252 acres, situated around our own valley, and planted to 12 acres of olive groves and vineyard.
