25.01.2022 Nothing was mown.Through the long grass were some leaves bobbing. Taro. Sweet potato. A snort from a pig consuming the leaves and nuts from the garden. Piglet...s underfoot. Where to walk? Smoke from the fire, a warm nasally composty smell from the garden. A leafy ambience. Women in long dresses sitting cross-legged in the motled sun, chatting or singing, it was hard to tell. Shelling beans, husking nuts, washing fabric. One man in a hammock, oblivious for now, to the fruit hanging within reach. Visitors looked for where they should go. They were already there.

24.01.2022 Bonnie the resident CFO (chief fetch officer) becomes very focused on her game of fetch, if there is a piece of fallen fruit more readily available than a stick she will happily use that for a game ... but she drew the line at the blue tongue lizard she mistakenly took for a stick the other day and gave herself a bit of a fright

24.01.2022 Gardening For gardeners who no longer define gardening as plastic Bags full of Bunnydings The double slit experiment. demonstrates, with unparalleled strangeness, that little particles of matter have something of a wave about them, and that the very act of conscious observation of a particle has a dramatic effect on its behavior.

23.01.2022 A recent review for Gardenfarm: "Great little cabin in a nicely protected lush valley, Bob the host is lovely and the general vibe was very relaxing. Exactly what the doctor ordered after many months stuck in Melbourne!"... Thanks for staying here Robert and for encouraging others to get into the Australian countryside. :)

19.01.2022 Spirit of play !

18.01.2022 Dear Digger has done his final fetch. Such a good mate to so many families at Gardenfarm. Children terrified of dogs got cured in 5 minutes. Such laughter. Such singleness of purpose. Such play.

18.01.2022 Keep them well, keep them happy, and they will keep you fed.

16.01.2022 There is no WiFi in the forest, but you’ll probably find a better connection...

15.01.2022 We need to share the beauty and bounty that comes from people who care to grow food for people who care to see, taste, smell, and feel the difference of food grown with care. Anyone who in any shape or form has felt this calling: you are part of this movement. The future of food is you and me. Jean-Martin Fortier

13.01.2022 Gardenfarm Wellness Retreat will be a great forum to relax, explore and make new friends. Bring nothing - just a pair of sturdy shoes or boots, a sun hat, a light rain coat and your personal effects. You will be looked after with excellent local food, guided bush and forest experiences, yoga and meditation sessions, plus vouchers for pampers. Fruit will be ripe and dripping from the trees, and the stream cool. Accommodation will be comfortable furnished tents, linen supplied, your own space, no hardship, in the little tent village. Do it for yourself! And tell your friends. Learn more at www.gardenfarm.com.au/wellness-retreat

09.01.2022 Happy Campers ! Sarah-Jane says: Absolutely amazing, better than we expected. It was idyllic. The camp area was lush and level, perfect for pitching a tent, there was lots of room and plenty of wood for the fire. The kids loved Bonny the dog and exploring the area, the babbling of the stream at night was relaxing. The location fantastic. Bob organised a reflexologist for some of us on the Saturday which was great. We were close enough to Woodside beach so went there on Sat arvo. On the Sunday we went to the nearby waterfalls and the icing on the cake was horse riding for the kids just up the road at Happy Healthy Horses, run by the amazing Anna. Bob was a terrific host and we'll definitely be back. April 2021

09.01.2022 The lady of the house called down to her butler, Smithers, come up to my bedroom, please. When he came through the door, she said, Now Smithers, the time has come. Take off my shoes. So Smithers took off her shoes. Now take off my stockings. So he took off her stockings. Now Smithers, take off my dress. So he took off her dress. Now Smithers, take off my brassiere. So off comes her bra. Now Smithers, take off my knickers. And if I ever catch you wearing my clothes again, you will have to find yourself another job!

08.01.2022 Henry D. Thoreau. The ocean, the mountains, the deserts, a wooded grove, all contain the magic to restore pure radiant energy to a stressed soul. The Mother Ea...rth in all of her infinite compassion and strength has remarkable powers to restore life force and vitality. Wash your self in the pure water of the streams, put your bare feet on the good earth, fall asleep in the arms of an ancient tree. There is good medicine to be found in nature.

07.01.2022 I am so interested these days in people who don't talk too much and have the ability to enjoy their time delving into the mystery of life in a kind of fascination with planet Earth.

06.01.2022 Gardenfarm Wellness Retreats (preparing for Jan, Feb, March, April 2021) Yoga and meditation Yogin/Consultant wanted... Each morning there will be optional yoga session before breakfast. Each day there will be meditation sessions These sessions will be advertised as included in the retreat price. We would like to hear from a consultant who can run these sessions seamlessly. It is possible that the yoga/meditation consultant would be paid to be on site for the full 6-day program, particularly if they are versatile, talented and willing to handle the food supply preparation, shopping and cooking the evening meal (with help). "If you have got something to offer the planet, now is the time" (Dalai Lama) Bob

06.01.2022 Camping Recommendation Our first camping trip since lockdown - Gardenfarm was just the tonic we needed. Very secluded, peaceful and green. There is so much room, the sites are huge. Bob was very welcoming, we were spoilt with fresh blackberries and broccoli. The facilities are clean and more than we expected. Plenty of free firewood and a wonderful stream running along the camp ground. Definitely worth a revisit. https://www.hipcamp.com/discover/victoria/gardenfarm
