Home is where the heart is

When you ask someone for a favourite childhood memory, quite often something food related will come up – frequently evoking a delicious reminder of something sweet mum made for after school, just because, or for a celebration.

Bree MacLean

Bree MacLean and her husband Kin had always dreamed of living in Willunga. ‘We wanted to give our kids space to run, to be outside, surrounded by the beauty of nature,’ says Bree. So, when they found their home on St Johns Terrace, it was love at first sight. ‘St John’s Terrace is one of the most beautiful places on earth, with the loveliest neighbours,’ says Bree. ‘We’ve been blown away by the community.’

When Bree’s five-year-old daughter wanted to raise money for homeless people, much of the Willunga community rallied in her support. ‘Clare at Bean Loved saw a passion in my daughter’s heart and let her sell flowers at her coffee van,’ Bree explains. That small actit, they just have to put the hard work in. They see this in action every weekend and they help out too!’
