Where is your sense of adventure?

The Monteith’s Beer & Wild Food Challenge is all about getting creative chefs around the country to give wildfood a go, adding a peppering of inspiration, imagination and creativity into a main meal.

It’s time to take the Monteith’s Urban Hunter Challenge. No more shopping for ingredients, it’s time to source them from the world around you.
