Griffith, in western NSW, is located in the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area and produces a large proportion of the grapes grown in that State. There are more than a dozen wineries in the district and most have cellar doors to enable you to taste the product - maybe purchase some to take home. I must admit our caravan was a lot heavier on the way out of town. The Visitor Information Centre can tell you about the opening times for the varies vineyards - and locals can let you know about the best specials available during your visit.
Griffith has a rich Italian heritage - visit Banna Street where you will find some great Italian food, bakers, cafes and restaurants. We stocked up on the local produce and took home plenty of pasta sauce, jams etc. This is also a large citrus growing area and each year they have a citrus sculpture display - large objects made from oranges.
