Who is Cara?

Cara’s family has a long association with organics in Australia. Cara herself is passionate about the art of eating, the preservation of our environment and through this finding the correct nutritional balance for family and community. Having spent much of her life on her family’s organic farm in southern Victoria, she is directly aware of how the health of the farm affects the health and vitality of its produce.

Cara has been instrumental in the establishment of one of Cleanfood Australia’s main not for profit activities - the Peaceful Gardens Organic Cooking School - where children in particular are encouraged to learn about food production and food preparation in a fun and involving way from an early age. Many school children and groups come on Farm Visits to the Peaceful Gardens Organic Farm to learn more about food production and how this can be done in greater harmony with the land. Cara is continually exploring opportunities to establish new Cooking Schools throughout Australia as well as overseas.

The items created under the “Cara’s Organic Produce” label have all been individually selected by Cara, and she is continuously exploring new tastes and production concepts.
