LOST News - July

As I say each edition, this magazine is for the community. We search across the region for stories about people, for people. 

Whilst finalising this edition I received a beautiful email which made me proud to be here. I am very grateful to this kind community member for reaching out. Here are Mary-Faeth's words... "Just a quick note to say thanks for doing such a good job with the issue of Lost that I have just read (vol 20 issue 196 June 2020). It’s attractive, well written, has really good internal coherence in guiding the reader through the articles and gave me a terrific sense of the community here through the portraits of some very interesting people. The photography is also excellent. I plan to recommend it to friends who I know will be moving to the area soon, as I think it will give them a good sense of place and people."

In July edition, we are excited to share stories of new adventures in our region and of some well-known favourites. 

Larissa peaked her head into Jen Latta's new world, Winespeake, which stands strong on the corner in Daylesford.

Mahmood stopped by the annual Olive Harvest at Lithia Olive Grove with Claire and Andrew. Ruby Pilven, a local Ballarat ceramic artist transports us into her world of colour and clay. Darren Carnell and Mahmmod had a great chat about a whole lot more than just architure and design. Mahmood then finished this month by listening to the words of wisdom from David Holmgren.

Michael visited the crew over at Learmonth Cider to hear about the exciting adventures that never end in Belinda and Anthony's lives. 

Anthony looked back in time to reminisce on one of the key figures in Australia's botanical history. 

So now it's time to snuggle into your blanket, take another sip of coffee and let's get lost.
