About Moonacres Kitchen

Moonacres was born in 2006, when Phil Lavers, then working as a financial trader in Toyko, and his wife Lisa decided to bring their young family back to Australia to enjoy a more family-oriented way of life. The opportunity to learn the art and craft of food, in all its forms, is the offering of Moonacres School. The school is a living repository not only of food knowledge but more importantly of food practice. The focus is on the doing, on learning by doing, and on being taught by working practitioners.
