Organic gardening and aquaponics system which uses fish to grow vegetables.
Owned by Lesley and Clive Denholm who are retired and building a farm that is very nearly self sufficient.

We are members of Whittlesea Landcare Group and are keen to introduce permaculture principles on our property.
The farm is exciting and a warm friendly environment. Private accommodation is new and clean. Quality bedding and good range of pillows.

The farm backs onto a state forest and has regular visits from Kangaroos.
