25.01.2022 Merry Christmas! We hope the White Boomers bring you some lovely gifts and you enjoy time with your family....

24.01.2022 With some help from the farmer, we welcome the newest addition to the Gale Force family! Poppy has just given birth to little girl! Now to train her to chase foxes!!

22.01.2022 What a beautiful spring morning.....have a fabulous weekend!

21.01.2022 Helping out the guys from Subsurface water management putting in some drainage! We've been having issues with anaerobic soils through winter, and now this should help keep our microbes safe and active!

21.01.2022 Great news for the organic Industry- there are many bodies to certify with, and many businesses who use the label organic without being Certified. Hopefully this will provide customers with greater knowledge and confidence around what Organic really means and how to ensure that what you pay for is what you get.

21.01.2022 Our new batch of girls helping me prepare for summer vege planting. Cleaning out the weeds and feeding our soil. Looking forward to a nice crop of melons this year!

19.01.2022 Morning- just a quick update on our egg sales- we have reduced our chook numbers and hence reduced our sales- you can grab eggs from Vasse General Store or from Dunsborough Growers Market. There will be limited supplies each week, so get in quick to grab yours. Pls msg us direct if you miss out!

19.01.2022 If you are heading south this summer, you can get some fresh, organic eggs from the Vasse General Store, or check out the Dunsborough Growers Market.

19.01.2022 And the next generation of the Gale Force family begins. This little guy is 24hrs old and looking strong after his first windy cold front coming through!

18.01.2022 You are never alone on a farm! Sheep with lambs and our friendly chooks.

18.01.2022 Thank you to all our customers for making our 2017 so wonderful! Our chooks are very happy that you love their eggs and are working hard, even today, to bring you organic egginess!

17.01.2022 We raise our chooks from day old so we can feed them the best certified organic feed listen to the sound of our 1 week old chicks

16.01.2022 HI Everyone, we still have plenty of chooks available! They are now about 13 months to 18 months old- but they are still laying really well! Please PM or comment if you would like some chooks. Thanks!

16.01.2022 We're all very excited!!! The next addition to the Gale Force Farm family is about to happen. Our sow is about to become a mum for her first time! 12 months in the waiting, but the day has arrived and signs are all there for piglets tonight!!

14.01.2022 This is what I call a big egg! Two of our girls laid 100g eggs today!! The benefits of true free range chooks enjoying certified organic feed

14.01.2022 Some morning chick cuteness to start your Monday. Our little chicks are raised from day old so we can give them the best organic feed

13.01.2022 It is that time where we look to rehome our girls. Raised from day old chooks, fed organic feed and free to roam on our organic pastures! They are 16 months old, still laying, just not everyday. $6 each or 10 for $50. Please comment or PM to arrange collection. Delivery can be arranged in the South West area.

13.01.2022 Hard to believe we have had our chooks for nearly 18 months! So now, it is time to move our older girls on. They are still laying, just not enough for us! If you would like some certified, organic chooks to scratch around your yard and give you some yummy eggs- email [email protected]. $15 each- can deliver to the MR, Cowtown, Busselton and Bunbury area.

13.01.2022 Challenge! See how fluffy you can make your omelettes!! I love omelettes and wish I had enough time to give this a try!!

13.01.2022 Are you heading south for the weekend? Grab some of our delicious Certified Organic eggs from Geo Organics - Farm Life stall The SHED Markets in Abbey, Vasse General Store, Black Sheep Deli and The Golden Jersey in Cowaramup, or River Fresh IGA and Blue Ginger Fine Foods & Cafe in Margaret River....if you just want to taste them...head to Black Sheep Deli who use them in their delicious breakfasts! Thanks to all these local businesses for supporting us!

13.01.2022 So just over a year ago, we started to get our eggs out to you all...and now the egg train comes to a slow stop....we have enjoyed being able to produce organic, open range eggs for you all, but now, we are looking to move to different, but still, organic produce. You can still get organic eggs from Mr Fresh Carine, for a short time, and if you are in Margaret River still at Margaret Fresh IGA and Black Sheep Deli and Golden Jersey in Cowaramup. We are slowly selling our girls to good homes. Thank you to you all for your support as we launched this venture, and we look forward to sharing more of our organic, sustainable living journey with you...if you need some good egg laying chooks, we have some to sell :)

12.01.2022 Yesterday was moving day.....for our chooks! Every couple of days the caravans get moved so the chooks get to have new pasture....its good for them and good for the dirt! True free ranging chickens!

12.01.2022 Best contract lawn mowers you can find. The girls are hard at work while I get to enjoy a nice cold beer after a day of fencing!

11.01.2022 Tomorrow is hump day...for a quick easy dinner- grab a dozen of our eggs from Organic on Charles, Mr Fresh Carine or The Good Grocer, with some mushrooms, onions and capsicum...voila a quick delicious omelette for dinner! Look for the Chook in the Sun

11.01.2022 Gale Force Farm is not just about chickens and eggs....we are about sustainable living. We have decided to go off grid. The cost was the equivalent of having the power company hook us up with the advantage of no monthly bill. August each year is the dark month! We (and our batteries) welcomed the sunshine today...let it shine for a few more days!

11.01.2022 This why we have chickens and why they are in caravans! What a great way to show the power of chooks!

08.01.2022 Our girls are still laying really well, check out todays effort- 152g!! Chooks are still available to buy if you want some tasty eggs!!

07.01.2022 Today was delivery day- here is where you can buy your eggs from the chook in the sun

07.01.2022 This is a great way to enjoy our eggs!

04.01.2022 The CSIRO has reported higher egg consumption linked to better quality diet- eggs can be an easy, nutritional and high in protein meal for breakfast, lunch or Dinner! http://www.eggs.org.au/community//csiro-study-ok-every-day/

01.01.2022 So, as some of you may be aware, as we all as selling eggs and running the farm, we also own a juice business! We have our first stockist in Perth (Cup&Co Innaloo and Balcatta) and will be doing a delivery to Perth on Sunday. If you would like some fresh, cold pressed juice, we are co-ordinating delivery/pick up options for Sunday. See the post below for the website details. Thanks!
