The word ‘Tongola’ roughly translates as ‘hut in the mountains’ which is a very apt name for the steep block with the little house and cheese production facility perched at the top we visited recently. Tongola Goat Products, situated near Wattle Grove in the Huon Valley, revolves around a herd of about thirty [...]
River Stones Farm

The late autumn morning sun glistened off the dewy grass as we walked down the driveway bordered with young hazelnut trees towards River Stones Farm. The entire Ethos crew was excited to see the origins of a product that we are all very proud to have on the menu. Tiny, baby heirloom vegetables were the [...]
Art at Ethos- Emily Blom

Every day, Ethos staff and customers are presented with something new, gleaned from and inspired by the locally grown/caught/farmed produce [...]
