A former food editor of Australian Gourmet Traveller magazine and one time apprentice to Australian chef, Tetsuya Wakuda, Rodney earnt his stripes in the kitchen, while Severine was born and raised in the big smoke of Sydney, before making the move to Tasmania, where she runs the business alongside Rodney, while raising their two children Tristan and Chloe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-17-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Rodney, Severine and children, from The Agrarian Kitchen\" class=\"wp-image-20706\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-17-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-17-220x330.jpg 220w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-17.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>RELATED CONTENT: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/best-of-tasmania-travel-never-forget\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Tasmania; the travel destination you never considered, and the one you\u2019ll never forget<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So on an island famous for food, what makes The Agrarian Kitchen a cut above the rest? Well, the clue\u2019s in the name. Agrarian means to relate to the land, and it\u2019s this philosophy that guides the business. The Agrarian Kitchen started life as a cooking school and farm in 2008, when the couple transformed an old schoolhouse in the Derwent Valley, 45 minutes outside of Hobart, into Tasmania\u2019s first hands-on, farm-based cooking school. Set across five acres, this working farm includes an extensive vegetable garden, orchard, berry patch and herb garden, all grown using organic principles. Rare breed pigs, chickens, milking goats and honeybees are also bred and raised here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>9 years later in 2017, the couple then opened the Agrarian Kitchen Eatery, which was founded on a \u2018paddock to plate\u2019 dining experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThe paddock to plate dining experience is special because our guests can enjoy dishes that have not only been handcrafted by our kitchen team, but most of the ingredients have also been grown in our garden at the cooking school farm. It is often described as hyper-local, where if we haven&#8217;t grown it then it has come from a local grower or local producer.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Our menu is extremely seasonal and we only use ingredients that are at their best that day. We make as much as possible by hand including our sourdough bread, kefir butter, ice-cream, charcuterie, cheese, condiments, preserves and jams, as well as our own cordial and herbal tisanes using fruit from our cooking school garden or local growers.&nbsp;We raise our own pigs on our cooking school&#8217;s farm which are then used in dishes in our restaurant. We also source local lamb and other pork from ethical breeders and local farms.&nbsp;This is the best local produce that Tasmania has to offer.\u201d \u2013 <strong>Severine <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-5-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"food at the agrarian kitchen\" class=\"wp-image-20707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-5-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-5-248x330.jpg 248w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-5.jpg 1050w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-4-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"food at the agrarian kitchen\" class=\"wp-image-20708\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-4-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-4-248x330.jpg 248w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-4.jpg 1050w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-9-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20709\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-9-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-9-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-9-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-9-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-9.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And it\u2019s not just the food that makes a dining experience at The Agrarian Kitchen special, it\u2019s also the location and the setting. <em>\u201cPeople love to visit our restaurant as we offer a dining experience located in the beautiful Bronte building, in New Norfolk\u2019s Willow Court &#8211; the town\u2019s old mental asylum\u201d<\/em> says Severine. <em>\u201cThe main dining room has a vast expansive space, large windows giving natural light, a high ceiling lined with the original pressed metal, as well as a beautiful fireplace.&nbsp;The Long Room is used for special functions and private groups and offers an abundance of natural light.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-14-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"The Agrarian Kitchen at dusk\" class=\"wp-image-20710\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-14-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-14-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-14-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-14-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Agrarian-Kitchen-14.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In their own words, the couple aims to deliver an \u2018unpretentious, diner-orientated service where everyone is made to feel welcome\u2019, and it\u2019s this attitude and approach to dining that makes us so proud to include Rodney and Severine, and a meal at the Agrarian Kitchen, on our Majestic Tasmania itinerary.
