Description
We run a regenerative farm in the southern highlands of nsw surrounded by national park. We raise beef cattle as produce, chickens and sheep for our own use.
The farm is off grid and working towards being self sufficient. I harvest and mill timber from our forests and work as a custom furniture maker.
We are surrounded by beautiful countryside and natural landscapes which are great to explore. My partner often works from our home office though has a business in town nearby. My 20 yr old son helps out occasionally though mostly to use my shed and tools to fix his 4WD.
We are building greenhouses and gardens, and finishing off some renovations.
Two local towns are 20 mins away, the beautiful south coast and its beaches are 40 minutes away.
