Welcome to my website.

I have been in Mildura now over 17 years and during this time I've worked with passion to bring to the table as much local produce as possible, which I interpret through my Italian traditions.

I'm interested in the relationship between food and the environment because I believe that the two are intimately connected. Food is often a topic of conversation in relation to basic needs, about the 'big night out', or tourism or such things, but it's rarely taken seriously from an ecological or political point of view, although there are some organisations that concentrate on these links such as the Slow Food movement which I encourage you to investigate www.slowfood.com

I'm also interested in the role that the arts can play in our lives so I'm a big supporter of the Mildura Writers' Festival which is mostly about poetry, the Murray River International Music Festival, the visual arts through my own business, Gallery 25 and the Mildura visual arts event, Murray Darling Palimpsest.

My family and I have actively chosen the country as the site for our economic and cultural activities. It isn't an easy choice, but we believe that the country is the place where Australia can express itself best, where difficulties can turn to possibilities and opportunities.

A number of people participate in this belief and vision and one of them is the producer of my eponymous preserves, Lyndall Vandenberg has been uncompromising in her efforts to produce a range of preservative free jams, chutneys and relishes, jellies, pastes and sauces using the best available produce. Explore Lyndall’s site further for the full range of products and more information: www.lyndallvandenberg.com.au

Websites have this habit of needing to be updated and sometimes we just don't get there, but life goes on and if you want an update on what we're doing here in Mildura simply call our office on (03) 50213627 or email info@stefano.com.au
