Homestead For Youth
Childhood should be a time of joy and dreams for the future. However, in Australia, there are one too many sad stories for our youth. Together, we have the power to write happier endings. Thank you for choosing to donate to Homestead For Youth (H4Y). By doing so you are actively changing the story for many young Australians and their families. So where does your donation go? Your donation goes directly to funding programs designed to prevent teen suicide, anti social behaviour and support mental well-being. Out residential program ensures that at risk youth have an opportunity to develop personal skills that lead to healthy social behaviour and reduce the risk of harm to themselves or others. The program is supported by a range of other programs including family therapy, mentoring and animal assisted therapies. The results speak for themselves.

VASS FOOD FOREST GARDEN
THE YOORALLA VENTILATION ACCOMMODATION SUPPORT SERVICE (VASS), is a community of people in residential care in Thornbury, who have a high degree of disability, and whose lives rely entirely on ventilation. With breathing equipment constantly by their side, and their mobility restricted to wheelchairs, this unique group of individuals has helped design and fundraise for a sensory food garden which will fulfull their aspirations, and bring moments of delight into their world. The VASS Food Forest Garden was the vision of the late Gerard Stevenson, who through a home accident, became a facility resident. Global Gardens of Peace designed the Food Forest Garden in close collaboration with Gerard, other residents, and Eckersley Garden Architecture, to turn the existing plain and underutilised space into a planted oasis with a focus on the production of food.

La Fiera To Your Door
LaFiera Italian Festival celebrates Myrtlefords Italian heritage through a weekend of having fun the Italian Way in May annually. Local vignerons from Alpine Valleys Wine regions heavily impacted by the 2020 bushfires will have their wine stalls at Saturday's La Festa Wine and Food - Our CovidSafe Plan only allows 1000 patron so many will miss out on being able to attend in 2021. Following many requests we’re happy to bring back La Fiera to your Door. Look out for some new additions and of course changes in wine vintages. Due to the flow on effect of last year’s fires, our wineries are experiencing some gaps in their portfolios, so you may notice a sneaky non-Italian variety (or two) but be assured they are just as delicious. There are three choices to reward your donations Il Piccolo con tutto (with everything) - $190 (valued at over $230) Il Piccolo con solo vino (only wine - 6 bottles - $150 (valued at over $175) Il Grande con tutto (with-everything) - $295 (valued at over $400)
