25.01.2022 Started work on our first permaculture design job today! Thank you so much @saje.farm for giving us a go! We did have a digger booked but as that didn't work out we dug this beauty by hand... Gonna be sore tomorrow! This swale is the start of some passive water harvesting in order to grow a food forest. Get in contact if you're interested in permaculture design for your property. #totallyworthit #sajefarm #drycreekfarmmudgee #permaculturedesign #permaculture #swales #foodforest #hardyakka #mudgeeregion #mudgee

24.01.2022 WHY HIRE GOATS FOR WEED CONTROL OR HAZARD REDUCTION? Goats provide a chemical free option. Perfect if you're organic, worried about overspray onto high value crops (such as in vineyards or orchards), in an environmentally sensitive area or looking for an alternative to chemicals or machinery. Goats can get into places machines can't.... Goats can eat out infestations too large to be treated by other methods. Goats can be used all year round in all weather conditions. Goats are adorable and they just LOVE eating weeds!

22.01.2022 Thanks for having the goats again @redhilleec ! Rocks and fallen branches make mowing difficult but it was no trouble for the goats. There is much more visibility now ahead of snake season and the trampled organic material and goat poo will give this area a boost in fertility moving conditions towards those more favourable for grass. #drycreekfarmmudgee #loveweedswilltravel #redhilleec #gulgong #mudgee #mudgeeregion #goats #goathire #goatsofinstagram #regenerativeagriculture #regenerativefarming #sustainability #environmentallyfriendly

21.01.2022 Getting the goats in and out of urban blocks sometimes has its challenges! #bluemountains #bluemountainsnsw #faulconbridge #goats #goatsofinstagram #loveweedswilltravel #drycreekfarmmudgee #permaculture #sustainability #environmentallyfriendly #nochemicals #noherbicides #chemicalfree

21.01.2022 Paterson's curse, saffron thistle and many other fantastic free plants have been providing some valuable support for our young food forest in the form of shade, wind shelter, nutrients, organic material, protection from animals and increased moisture. Today I got started chopping and dropping using our blackberry scythe from Scythes Australia. Now all that organic material becomes mulch and nutrient for the young fruit trees. No need to poison or remove just chop and drop, our soil will thank us for it!

19.01.2022 Green manure planted on swale banks to stabilise them quickly. We have also planted a couple of trees and will soon add shrubs and ground covers. #permaculture #permaculturedesign #drycreekfarmmudgee #slowtheflow #naturalsequencefarming #regenerativeagriculture #swales #mudgee #mudgeeregion #foodforest

18.01.2022 Trying to restore the water cycle back to a chain of ponds system on Dry Creek Farm. Excited to see some ponds appearing! @tarwynparktraining please don't hesitate to tell us if we aren't on the right track. Have read the books and seen the videos but now we're learning by doing. #naturalsequencefarming #leakydams #leakyweirs #chainofponds #regenerativefarming #regenerativeagriculture #sustainability #mudgeeregion #mudgee #drycreekfarmmudgee

18.01.2022 Hi All, Our business has been targeted by a number of unscrupulous people charging backpackers for info on farms looking for jobs. Unfortunately we are not looking for any workers. If you are a backpacker looking for work, please don't hand over your money to apps and websites as they are scamming you. Feel free to share this post.

18.01.2022 We've been consulting and implementing permaculture designs and swales for our clients for the last few months. The work is really rewarding and it's great to see the ideas spread and people's enthusiasm. It makes finding a spare moment to finally mulch and seed our own swales even more special. #permaculture #regenerativeagriculture #mudgee #mudgeeregion

17.01.2022 This is the moment things got a little crazy on the fire ground last night. Once the wind came up, there was no way to stop the fire crowning into these pines. #nswrfs #rfs #nswbushfires

17.01.2022 We have been super excited in the recent rain to see our freshly dug swales slowing the flow and starting to rehydrate Dry Creek Farm. We were digging that long one in the morning and it filled that very afternoon! Now we're addicted... Must. Dig. More. Swales. #permaculture #permaculturedesign #drycreekfarmmudgee #slowtheflow #naturalsequencefarming #regenerativeagriculture #swales #mudgee #mudgeeregion

15.01.2022 Happy to be on some blackberry @springmead_bnb_farmgate_tours These goats are helping to speed up the process of revegetating this gully to protect it from erosion. They will convert some of the blackberry into fertiliser and increase access. Then extra wattles and pioneer species can be planted to kick-start the progression towards a tree system. Blackberry is often an indication of erosion and lack of organic material and provides water, shade and protection to young sapli...ngs to start establishing a forest. By working with it and planting amongst the blackberry without completely removing it we are simply speeding up this process. Once there is shade over the blackberry the conditions will no longer be favourable to it and it will gradually be out competed. Also, the goats get a good feed! Win win. #goats #goathire #goatsofinstagram #loveweedswilltravel #drycreekfarmmudgee #regenerativeagriculture #regenerativefarming #planttrees #letweedsdothework #sustainability #lithgow #rydal #mudgee #mudgeeregion #bluemountains #bluemountainsnsw #permaculture #forestprogression See more

15.01.2022 Day of planting for @saje.farm Besides planting on swales for passive water harvesting another way this food forest is resilient is by planting not just an orchard but a forest with all the different types of support a forest would naturally have. This includes nitrogen fixers (wattles, tagasaste, casuarinas), tubers (fennel), vines (hardenbergia and native passionfruit), ground cover (native pigface), brambles (raspberries). Of course these plants are the support to a dive...rse range of productive trees including figs, olives, pears, apples, cherries, apricots, peaches, nectarines, almonds, hazelnuts. #foodforest #permaculture #mudgeeregion #drycreekfarmmudgee #swales #mudgee #permaculturedesign

11.01.2022 The goats want to say a huge thank you to Image Signs Mudgee for their newly personalised ride! You did such a fantastic job, we love it! @imagesignsmudgee101

11.01.2022 This hillside was a jungle of weeds a couple of weeks ago. A lack of ground cover coupled with a recent flood event lead to erosion and bare ground which was quickly colonised by a variety of disturbance loving weeds. While the seeds may have blown in or been dropped by birds the real reason these weeds are growing here is because the ground needed stabilising and repairing and these were the best candidates for the job. Weeds are often the first step in progression and if l...eft this hillside would be restored over time but we can fast track this process! Now that the goats have cleared and fertilised while leaving the roots for stability, the weeds can be replaced with more desirable fast growing pioneer plants. Once the hill has been stabilised by the plants that we want the conditions that are favourable to the weeds will no longer exist. #loveweedswilltravel #drycreekfarmmudgee #hawkesbury #coloriver #goathire #goats #goats #goatsofinstagram #bluemountains #bluemountainsnsw #regenerativefarming #regenerativeagriculture #sustainability #planttrees #permaculture

04.01.2022 The goats are sad to be leaving this feast they've had at Katoomba. What a great job they've done. Rather than being left with a mass of dead impenetrable blackberry this backyard is now completely accessible. The native grasses will have more of a chance to take over and the owners can get down the back and enjoy this beautiful spot.

04.01.2022 We were on TV tonight! Feeling like an absolute goose but got to get the word out there. You don't have a weed problem, you have a lack of goats problem! #Loveweedswilltravel Thank you so much Sam Kaar, Mel Wightman and PRIME7 News Central West for taking the time to come and chat to us today.

03.01.2022 Assembly complete! It took a couple of nights and half a day. I hope the chickens love it as much as I do. #regenerativeagriculture #permaculture ... #rotationalgrazing #chicken #chickencaravan30 #mudgee #mudgeeregion See more

01.01.2022 A great article about why we should love our weeds!

01.01.2022 We've been paying the goats penalty rates over this holiday period with extra blackberry! As you can see they've thoroughly enjoyed their Christmas feast! Some before and afters.
