Sustainable living. . . with merriment
In August 2011, we kissed goodbye a comfortable life and financial security in Australia to come home and set up a sustainable farm in the Nelson Lakes area of New Zealand's South Island.
We have 25 hectares, a Permaculture Design Certificate and no practical farming experience.
We also have a great sense of humour. We're probably going to need that.

In a nutshellWe farm Highland cattle and Wiltshire sheep and grow saffron.
We've also been enslaved by an ever-increasing flock of chooks. We are forced to do their bidding while they run amok around the farm and lay eggs in strange places. We grow as much of our own food as we can. We host terrific dinner parties. We never make the same mistake twice. |
