Beginnings…

Rotary is an international organisation that fosters fellowship while ‘doing good’ in the community. This usually involves various forms of fund-raising, the proceeds of which are distributed to worthy organisations.

In mid-2017, the Rotary Club of Cambridge considered new ways to raise funds and a cookbook was proposed. We are fortunate to have Jan Bilton, an award-winning food writer as a member of our club and she suggested Taste Waikato — a long overdue celebration of our region’s bountiful food bowl. The first phase of the project was to find Waikato food producers who would sponsor the book. These sponsors offer tempting tastes of the Waikato’s abundance in the following pages. And their generosity means that all the proceeds from sales are profit and our club is very grateful to them. The Cambridge Rotary Club is very proud to have produced this unique book and we wish to thank Jan Bilton (recipes/food photography) and Michael Ryan (text) for their major contributions.

We trust you will enjoy savouring the Waikato.
