OUR FARMSTAND’S STORY

Our family has been farming here for four generations, the farm being first settled by Chris’ great grandfather. The farm is currently run by Paul and Jenny and their son Chris with his wife Ann. Chris and Ann have three sons (Lachie, Jimmy and Billy) who are keen to become the fifth generation on the farm.

Crop rotation, time control grazing and application of various inputs to create healthy soils, cows and chickens are the main driving forces behind the production of our organic products.

Diversity is also an important part of our sustainability – from the microbiology in our soil, to the diversity of pastures and crops, to the enterprises we run. Our next enterprise will be a small on-farm milk factory which is to be located at another organic property which we own in the valley. Stay tuned for more information on this as it draws closer – hopefully to be operational by mid-2018
