THE HOBART MAGAZINE I’d like to start by saying a big thank you for the wonderful response and support we’ve received after releasing our first issue. You took the time to pick up a copy (or click on the digital mag) and flick through the pages, and we thank you for that. And thank you to our distribution partners for having us in your cafe, venue, store or space. It means the world to us. And now onto July/August. This issue we’re in the thick of winter and our fantastic events calender with Festival of Voices, the Mid-Winter Fest and the Australian Antarctic Festival all going on around us. Kirsha Kaechele, who moved to Hobart to live with David Walsh (of Mona fame), shares insight into her incredible 24 Carrot Gardens project, teaching kids about the value of growing and eating healthy food. Alex Peroni takes us behind the scenes of his recent Grand Prix of Monaco win and chef Simon Pockran shares one of his favourite recipes for when he’s off duty. Plus there’s travel, fashion, food, wine, relationships and a few other little surprises in there for you. Thanks for joining us. It’s great to have you here.
