The cookbook, which introduces producers from across the region and features a great selection of recipes contributed by New England families and foodies, is set to go on sale at Seasons of New England in Uralla on March 24.

“We have produced a premium, professionally designed and printed cookbook showcasing the New England, with a particular focus on local produce, cafes, wineries and restaurants,” said Sue Gooley, Armidale City Public School Parents and Citizens Association.

“The cookbook has received great support. Producers, and many local food and wine outlets, have come on board to sponsor ‘Our New England Table’ – and add their special recipes to those contributed by the school community!”

All proceeds from sales of the book will be used to support education programs and opportunities for the students of Armidale City Public School.

A priority will be the creation of a covered outdoor learning area for K-2 children.
