Description
We are the proud owners of 200 hectares in the Southern Flinders Ranges in South Australia. We offer an experience to those interested in understanding sustainable farming. We have a yabbie farm with a vegetable garden & fruit orchard and we grow garlic. All irrigated with the nutrition of the yabbies. We have about 100 sheep, a few ducks and chickens, a cat and dog. We run on solar with a back up generator and have coverage for telstra phone. We also offer camping for travellers Simple and natural living. We are 12 km from Wilmington with views of the hills, lots of birds and wild life, the miracles of sunrises and sunsets and a million stars at night by the camp fire.
