Meet sculptor, Joel Zimmermann. We discover the Barossa’s ‘master of imagination’ in his Murray Mallee studio. After a decade of providing financial assistance, support and improving the life of cancer patients in the region, we speak with founding members, Tash Goldsworthy and Julie Combe of Barossa Area Fundraisers for Cancer and reflect on their journey of inspiration and joy. We speak with Clayton Scott, one of only two ‘Master’ Funeral Directors in the state, about the balance of celebrating life. Celebrating a career of over 30 years as a chocolatier, we enter the kitchen of Bryon Pearson to learn about his sweet and fulfilling life. And new to The Barossa Mag is contributor, Luke Rothe. With each edition, Luke will take us on a journey in time via stories about his treasures; a unique collection dedicated to the Barossa Valley’s history titled ‘Barossa Bygones’.
