Fleurieu Food and Wine

People and Culture

The people, cultures and histories of the places we cook. Told with the people who hold them, and checked with them before we share a word.

Our stories

We cook on the lands of the Traditional Custodians of the Fleurieu Peninsula and the Lakes, in buildings that local families and volunteers have cared for over generations. These are their stories, shared with their permission. If there is a person or a place you think we should learn about, tell us.
