Flinders Truffles: Winter Truffle Hunt Season
Guided Périgord black truffle hunts on the Flinders farm through winter (June to August), with truffle soup and a toastie by the fire. Farmgate days run without booking.
Flinders Truffles run guided Périgord black truffle hunts on their farm through the winter season, roughly June to August. You walk the oak fields with the truffle dogs, then warm up by the fire with truffle soup and a truffle cheese toastie.
Who it's for: foodies, curious families with older kids, anyone who wants a winter activity that isn't a cellar door. Wear warm layers and closed boots, hunts run in light rain, so a raincoat is non-negotiable.
The practical move: dates drop on Facebook and Instagram (@flinderstruffles) rather than a clean events page, so follow them and book the moment a date opens. Pair with truffle dinner at Polperro the same evening, that is the proper winter weekend. If you miss out, the farmgate days run without booking and you can buy fresh truffles to take home.
