Exclusive paddock-to-plate tours of our regenerative farm, tailored to your interests, can be arranged in advance directly with us. Visitors will receive a warm welcome from our farmily and a unique, real experience on a genuine working farm where we make our living from the food we grow (we're not a showy tourist venue or a hobby farm)!

Meet the animals and the farmers: Lawson, a fourth generation primary producer, or Laura, an experienced environmental educator (or both at your request if we're available!), will share with you the heart and soul of our organic farming practices and principles.
We explore a different perspective of protein farming through customised on-ground walking tours (whatever the weather!), with lots of time for questions and discussion. The tour ends in our farm shop where we can enjoy a cup of organic tea or coffee and you can buy our produce.
Further organic refreshments and workshops on a range of food, farming, permaculture and sustainability topics are also available for advance bookings.
