One of Australia’s first community cookbooks, The Barossa Cookery Book, was compiled in 1917 as a war fundraiser. Reworked in 1932, it was reborn in a format that has become iconic. More than 100 years and 35 reprints later it remains a powerful symbol of generosity and resilience.

Please join us in celebrating the remarkable history of the cookery book and the launch of its new companion book, Rolling Up Their Sleeves compiled by Those Barossa Girls. Explore our wonderful display of select excerpts from both books to learn more about the inspiring community of women behind the legacy of The Barossa Cookery Book.
