Rose Creek Estate OPENS ITS DOORS to the public for special days each year. Join us for fine food, home-made pizza, music and dancing. We run tours of the extensive gardens and vineyard along with a trek along the olive groves.
Don't forget: the Cellar Door is open. Please make arrangements by phoning (03) 9337 5471 to find a time that will suit you as well as Lina and Toni.

On the corner of Craig Street, an old wine barrel and some young olive trees tell me this must be the place, although facing me is just a house like any other in the street. I wonder if I have come to the wrong address until I spot the name Villa Varapodi. I know then that I am at the right place.
The casual passer-by would never guess that behind this brick house in suburban Keilor East lies a 'secret garden', a wonderful green world lovingly tended by Tony and Lina.
The Book is called "Growing Honest Food - An Oasis of Italian Tradition in the Suburbs" and is available from the author Gabriella Gomersall-Hubbard at http://www.growinghonestfood.com.
