Welcome to our paradise -
We’re located in the hills of a little town called Bena (South Gippsland), 1.5 hours south east of Melbourne, on the land of the Bunurong people
Surrounded by rolling hills and dairy land, we’ve got 1 acre in production where we use organic and regenerative agricultural principles to grow nutrient dense vegetables and cheerful cut flowers, with grass fed beef being available very soon (our small herd rotationally grazes the other 35 acres). We love the way local produce connects the community to each other and their food, the land we are on and the food system we are all invested in. Our produce goes around to local grocers, hospitality venues and veg boxes
We acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land (the peoples from the Kulin nation on Bunurong land) and pay our respects to the elders - past, present and emerging
Farming practices -
Working with nature -
We believe in creating and preserving living soils. We don’t unnecessarily disturb the soil’, which means that the little guys in the ground (fungi, our local giant earthworms, bacteria) can thrive and balance the soil life
Organic and diverse -
We focus on seasonal, fresh and diverse produce without the nasty sprays that harm the Earth and people involved. By using compost, cover crops, interplanting and manual work (hand tools in stead of big machinery) we are able to grow a variety of produce and allow the system to work together
