Turralla Truffles: Bungendore NSW
Established in 2005 on a Property near Bungendore NSW , Turalla Truffles is set on the picturesque Southern end of the Lake George Basin, a half hour drive from the nations capital. We grow “Black Truffle” or “Black Périgord Truffle” (Tuber melanosporum) named after the Périgord region in France. The French black truffle is the fruiting body of the fungus Tuber melanosporum.
The fungus forms a symbiotic relationship with the roots of oak and hazel trees. The edible portion, or truffle, is harvested in winter once it has matured.
