Description
Our journey began by accident when we came across this breathtaking block in the Northern Rivers. With distant views of Protestors Falls, golden sunsets over the Nimbin Valley, and the iconic Nimbin Rock along with the characters of Nimbin we instantly fell inlove with the area.
We started our journey with pasture-raised cattle, sheep, chickens, and ducks. They have become our partners, by helping to keep the grass down while supporting us towards a healthier, more sustainable way of life. While incredibly rewarding, it hasn’t been without challenges. Raising a young family alongside the responsibilities of the farm has shown us that we can’t do it alone.
As our farm continues to grow with newborn lambs, chicks, and calves, we grow alongside it, learning farm life is tuff but rewarding.
We’re a young family raising two small active children on this beautiful 100-acre property, we are building a sustainable lifestyle from the ground up. We would ideally welcome Workawayers who love the outdoors, don’t mind getting their hands dirty, rise early and would enjoy rewarding days. Workawayers will not be asked to help with any business-related activities.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

We’ll show you how rotational grazing helps increase cropping ability, improve soil health, support healthier cattle, and boost overall farm productivity. You’ll learn about sustainable pest management techniques, working with the land rather than against it.
