The servants who once lived and worked at Vaucluse House were required to grow, gather and cook all the food that was needed to feed the Wentworths and their staff. Discover where the servants worked and participate in some of the cooking duties they performed such as making damper, butter and lemonade. Explore the kitchen garden to see which vegetables Mr Wentworth grew, then enjoy eating your home-made damper.
