Chefs Against Cancer!

We were proud to support Celebrity Chefs Against Cancer at the Four Seasons Hotel Houston, featuring Melbourne-born Chef Jason Gould and the team from Common Bond in Houston.

Together, they showcased premium Australian lamb in support of a truly meaningful cause.

This event brings Houston’s culinary community together to raise funds for Camp H-Town, a remarkable organisation that partners with MD Anderson Children’s Cancer Hospital to create a unique summer camp experience for children affected by cancer.

It was a wonderful evening of community, hospitality and purpose, highlighting not only the quality and versatility of Australian lamb, but also the power of food to bring people together for a good cause.
