Olive Producer: Maureen Titcumb, is president of the Milawa Gourmet Region (MGRA). established in 1995.
The MGRA is a volunteer association that runs events dedicated to the food, wine accommodation and scenery of the Milawa region. The group formed to enable smaller providers to join forces to market themselves in a very busy food and wine environment.
MGRA comprises 56 members of varying size, from small olive producers, blueberry growers and mustard makers to bed & breakfast providers and famous award winning brands as Brown Brothers winery and Milawa Cheese.
The group drives tourism to the region by organising regular farmers' markets and the annual Milawa Beat The Blues Jazz Festival each July.
