Founder and Chef Helene Henderson

Malibu Farm, Skål Pizza

Celebrated chef, restaurateur and bestselling cookbook author Helene Henderson has established herself among the farm-to-table vanguard over the last two decades. Born in northern Sweden, Helene's culinary journey began in her hometown where she learned the art of gardening, foraging, and homesteading. In 1997, she ventured to Los Angeles, establishing Lavender Farms Catering and making a formidable impression on Hollywood’s private chef circuit. Helene's love for simple, fresh ingredients propelled her into the spotlight and soon, Malibu Farm was born in her backyard as a series of cooking classes and small group dinners. By 2012, Malibu Farm evolved into a booming pop-up-turned-permanent-fixture on Malibu Pier. Helene, alongside her husband and business partner John Stockwell, has since expanded Malibu Farm into a global success story with restaurants in seven cities—from SoCal to New York, Hawaii to Japan.

Chef Henderson’s commitment to sustainability and organic produce, coupled with a focus on locavore cuisine, has been the catalyst to Malibu Farm’s success and an ethos that carries over to her latest venture, Skål Pizza. Opened in March 2023 within the charming Lido Marina Village, Skål Pizza weaves together Chef Henderson’s Swedish roots and coastal California lifestyle with its lineup of inventive veggie-forward offerings. Her smörgåsbord vision for Skål encourages patrons to savor a little bit of everything, from the vibrant woodfired pizzas and handmade pastas to the roasted veggies, hearty greens, and fika-inspired desserts. Most importantly, though, Henderson stands by her “something for everyone” philosophy, creating culinary destinations where farm-fresh-food feels approachable and health-conscious eating is attainable.
