While food and wine enthusiasts across Melbourne trekked into the CBD for workshops and events as part of the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival, Casey locals had a taste of the best food and wine in the region, in their own backyard.

Held on the historic grounds of the Old Cheese Factory, the fifth annual Casey Food and Wine Festival saw locals spoiled for choice on Saturday 1 April with a range of local and regional producers, wineries, breweries, cider houses and gourmet food and cheese.

Live entertainment and a series of workshops, including a sip and paint class and and clay making activity meant there was something for everyone to enjoy.
