Descrição
30 acre farm in Whittlesea with cows, sheep, chickens, horses and fish.
We have a large greenhouse using wicking beds and an aquaponics system to grow our own vegetables.
Owned by Lesley and Clive Denholm who are retired and building a farm that is very nearly self sufficient.
A bit about us, we have 3 adult children and 7 grandchildren. Been married for 44 years, loving farm life after lots of years running businesses.
The farm is exciting and a warm friendly environment. Private accommodation is new and clean. Quality bedding and good range of pillows.
We love fresh wholesome home grown food.
The farm backs onto a state forest and has regular visits from Kangaroos.
We will ensure you enjoy and value your time on the farm and very much appreciate any help with our projects.
