The Agrarian Kitchen
A dining destination for anyone who travels to Tassie, The Agrarian Kitchen is a restaurant, cooking school and kiosk nestled within the historic Willow Court precinct in New Norfolk, in Tasmania’s Derwent Valley. Founded by Rodney Dunn and Séverine Demanet in 2008, what began as a cooking school and farm has grown into a celebration of growing, teaching and dining, all centred around a one-acre kitchen garden. Today, the garden sits just metres from the restaurant, with seasonal produce shaping everything from the restaurant’s ever-changing menu to cooking classes and the food served at the kiosk. Rodney leads the kitchen as Executive Chef, while Séverine oversees the day-to-day running of the restaurant, cooking school and kiosk as General Manager.

Asparagus With Ricotta & Shaved Lemon by The Agrarian Kitchen & Gemma Leslie

In this poster, a long lunch unfolds among the gardens of The Agrarian Kitchen in Tasmania. Artist Gemma Leslie captures the pleasure of dining outdoors on a spring day, with a table set for sharing, surrounded by the one-acre garden that is integral to the restaurant.

Painted in layers of rich greens, this poster places you right in the centre of The Agrarian Kitchen’s garden. Gemma’s focus is the table, nestled amongst the garden, to show the incredible connection between what is grown on the farm and what ends up on the plate.

On the table is a dish of asparagus, freshly made ricotta and shaved lemon — a dish that heralds the arrival of spring. For co-founder and executive chef Rodney Dunn, asparagus is a seasonal marker, paired here with the new spring milk made into ricotta and Meyer lemons, which are also a spring crop in Tasmania.

In the distance, the historic building that houses the restaurant sits behind the garden, but it’s the garden itself that remains the main focus of the painting. More than 90% of The Agrarian Kitchen’s produce is grown on site, with the menu following the garden through the seasons.
