Healesville Sanctuary crowded with local drinks

Healesville Sanctuary once again became a venue for local drinks to connect with a wider audience over the weekend of 30-31 August.

The local zoo collaborated with 22 Yarra Valley wineries, breweries and distilleries, bringing their cellar doors on-site.

In its 13th year, Wine and Wildlife marked another huge success, contributing to local tourism and the economy, as well as Healesville Sanctuary’s work in caring for wildlife and its resident animals.

Check out photos of the event taken by Star Mail journalist Dongyun Kwon.
