Sylvia Lo Piccolo, Pascoe Vale resident and Chair of the Pascoe Vale Food Collective.  Sylvia was raised in Hadfield from migrant parents, attending both Hadfield Primary and High Schools, and has lived in Pascoe Vale for 35 years.

The Pascoe Vale Food Collective is a community lead group that sources food and cleaning products in bulk and provides these items for distribution to its members during a monthly distribution day. The focus is to source the products as locally, organically and ethically as possible, with a large environmental focus especially with the reduction of packaging.
