A Yarra Valley Story, Built One Local Producer at a Time

Locavore Studio is a cafe, providore and catering kitchen.
Founded in 2015 by Chef Jessie Rae Crossley and built around a love of local food and the people who grow, raise and make it.

Local, farm-fresh, and proudly Yarra Valley

Locavore Studio began with a simple idea: food tastes better when it comes from people you know, places you've been, and ingredients picked at their peak. Every dish on our menu, every product on our shelves and every event we cater is built around the best of the Yarra Ranges and Yarra Valley.
Since 2015

Locavore Studio was established in 2015 in a little kitchen studio by Chef and Director Jessie Rae Crossley.

In the early days Locavore dabbled in cooking classes, pop up pastry shops and sourdough, eventually moving into catering. From 2016, Locavore really made an impression in the Yarra Valley, quickly becoming the preferred catering group to service weddings & wine events. In 2018, Locavore took the plunge into opening the eatery and providore, providing the community with all aspects of food and beverage offering.
