The Folly Truffles

Allow about 1–2 hours

Winter truffle hunts on a working truffière — one of Queensland's few.

About

The Folly is a working truffière in the heart of Granite Belt wine country, one of the rare Queensland farms cultivating French Périgord black truffles. The property supplies fresh truffles to some of the state's top kitchens and opens its doors to visitors during the truffle season for farm experiences that explain the cultivation process and the careful work of harvesting these prized fungi. The farm also produces gourmet truffle products and runs The Truffle Trailer for seasonal dining.

Visitors can book farm experiences that typically include guided tours through the truffière, where the family behind The Folly shares insights into truffle growing in the Granite Belt's unique climate. The property requires advance bookings to ensure they don't disappoint anyone making the trip. Regulars praise the chance to see a working truffle farm in action and to learn about a rare agricultural pursuit in regional Queensland, all within reach of the area's well-established wine-tasting circuit.
