23.01.2022 Such a beautiful morning on the farm...

22.01.2022 Good morning and welcome to our rainy day. Here are a few pics of the roses as they start to come alive with the warmer weather. We've also been out on snail patrol this morning, a little rain and they come out in the thousands. Have a wonderful Sunday and see you soon on the farm. Antonio, Adam and Chase the very handsome farm dog!

22.01.2022 Friday night Instagram...eight friends have hired the farm for the weekend. Lots of food, fun and good times planned. (Antonio will be busy) @andreyperth and your friends - thank you again and welcome back.

21.01.2022 Good morning from the South West! We know you love our jam and Antonio loves to make if for you. This is your last chance to pick up some jam outside the pub in Northbridge on 1 December 2020 (look for the big black SUV - you know the drill) - the last ever drop off for 2020. www.littlehillfarm.com.au/jam-orders Have a wonderful Wednesday...

20.01.2022 Such a farm dog. Even in the city he found water. This could be illegal...

17.01.2022 Can you see the smile? It is the smile of a happy farmer boxing up a Christmas jam order for a friend of the farm. www.littlehillfarm.com.au/jam-orders We are heading back up to Perth for a Jam Drop Off on Tuesday 1st December 2020. If you would like some of our wonderful farm jam, please place your order through our website. The pick-up point is usually the Northbridge Hotel (cnr Brisbane and Lake Street - Perth) I will be waiting for you from 4.30pm to 5.00pm - loo...k for the big black SUV! We do deliver large orders by arrangement in and around the CBD. When you place the order just provide the address and Antonio will confirm the details. All the fruit used in our jams comes from the farm (with the occasional addition item supplied by one of our friendly neighbours). They are all 100% the fruit named on the jar and use no artificial colours, flavourings or preservatives. OUR STANDARD RANGE Cherry Bouquet Jam [Cherry, Strawberry and Raspberry] This is the Christmas special. Blackberry and Gin Jam Everyone needs a little Gin in their life. Peach and Apricot Jam A new batch for you and Mrs X in Leederville that hides it from the kids. Caramelised Pear and Vanilla Jam Quality stocking filler or secret 3am scone treat. Roasted Plum and Vanilla Jam This is outrageously awakening you know you want some. Peach and Passionfruit Jam A little like Nona’s house, full of love. Fig and Grape Jam FIGJAM Sicilian Blood Orange Marmalade You already know Antonio. It’s safe to roll with the Sicilians. Roasted Apricot and Vanilla Jam Such a beloved jam and one of our biggest sellers Plum, Rhubarb and Ginger Jam Blokes seem to buy this one a lot. Premium Mixed Berry Jam Antonio, Adam and Chase picked all the berries just for you. $6 per jar. OUR RELISHES, CHUTNEYS AND PICKLES One of the joys of growing your own produce is the ability to preserve various items so they can be enjoyed out of season. We have always made several Relishes, Chutneys and Pickles which have primarily been for use in guest meals or farm only sale. Here is a list of what is currently available. Beetroot and Caramelised Onion Relish New Stock Mango Chutney New $6.00 per jar. If you would like some of our jam, please place your order through our website. www.littlehillfarm.com.au/jam-orders

12.01.2022 We are blessed to have so many people in our farm life locally, from Australia and around the world. Merry Christmas and thank you for all the wonderful shared posts and thoughts over the year. All the very best Adam, Antonio and Chase the very happy farm dog.

12.01.2022 You keep asking...what were those silver plants...they are artichokes. We have thousands of them and Antonio is always cooking them up when in season. Here are a few links to recipes... www.littlehillfarm.com.au/italian-stuffed-artichokes/ www.littlehillfarm.com.au/deep-fried-artichoke-hearts/

12.01.2022 The pumpkins are looking good. The corn is almost at its end and the kitchen gardens are getting ready for Winter on the farm. We've had a few heavy mists in the valley this week too - I keep forgetting to take a pic for you.

11.01.2022 Not one...but a hundred blooms just for you!

09.01.2022 Our first really hot day yesterday and Chase and I went down to the Ford for a swim. A little surprised how low the river was after such good rains this year though. Happy Days!

09.01.2022 WARNING...THIS VIDEO CONTAINS GOOD VIBES Happy Sunday wherever you are. Here is just a few moments of Chase chilling in the front paddock.

08.01.2022 This year has been like no other on the farm, cooking classes and events have been limited to family group activities and accommodation guests only. Longtime Little Hill Farm supporter Richard and Aundrey brought 6 friends to the farm this weekend for an end of Spring celebration. Besides gourmet breakfast meals daily, afternoon scones and a guided tour of the farm, the eight-member group sat down to seasonal feast last night which featuring produce grown predominately on the... farm - artichokes, beetroot, vinocotto, sage, herbs, leaks, garlic, spring onions, almonds, asparagus, limes, lemons and cherries. Here is the menu Stuffed Roman artichoke hearts, mini caramelized onion and beetroot tartlets, honey soy chicken wings. Ricotta gnocchi in a sage and burnt butter sauce Tuscan garlic chicken, almond pilaf rice and seasonal vegetables Asparagus risotto Lime and limoncello sorbet Cherry and frangipane tart Last nights feast was a wonderful way to wind down for Christmas Richard and Aundrey Thank you and we hope to see you again soon. All the best, Antonio, Adam and the very happy farm dog Chase.

08.01.2022 Almost taken out by a low flying crow...the sunburnt hills in the valley.

07.01.2022 ...from the mail bag. COLIN WEE - TRIPADVISOR - HEART AND STYLE Adam and Antonio have created beautiful, and elegant studios set amidst a scenery reminiscent of Tuscany at Little Hill Farm. We had a lovely stay recently, and admired the heart they put into their work, the style apparent in everything they do, and the lovely food from Antonio’s kitchen. Thank you both for the Farm tour, the scone making class, allowing us to ring the Angelus Bell, and being such lovely hosts. Also loving the jams we bought when we were there. Looking forward to returning to Bridgetown in the future.

06.01.2022 Antonio let me do the first stages of cooking last nights' Bistecca alla Fiorentina which was part of a 5-course Harvest Feast Banquet for guests. Normally, I don't get to do anything this complicated in the cooking department but I was promoted to part-time Sou Chef...2-inch Rib-eye Steaks!

06.01.2022 Recipe Hunter Red Alert all I said was let’s do something different with the apricots from the orchards this year. Just one innocent comment a few days ago. I thought nothing of it. AND THEN ON NYE Antonio is spending a lot more time in the kitchen than normal, while the dog and I were out on the veranda watching the clouds pass by I head into the kitchen and see my husband hard at work making a dessert for us. All I can tell you is that this recipe is some next lev...el home cooking! As always, Antonio has put the recipe up www.littlehillfarm.com.au/apricot-and-vanilla-souffles Happy New Year from Antonio, Adam, and Chase the very happy farm dog.

06.01.2022 It is just too hot out there Chase. Where's Antonio - it's time for morning tea...

04.01.2022 Every year we spend hours repairing nets just before we cover the cherry trees. Priority number 1...protect the cherries!

03.01.2022 Only a few weeks ago and it felt like Winter, now it is Spring, and Summer is just around the corner. For weeks and weeks, it was hard to get outside with the rain and now it has stopped, everything is growing at pace. The last week has been all about the hedges and managing those prolific growers around the farm. Also cleaning up fire breaks and getting ready for the fire season. Chase has been my shadow and Antonio has been taking pics. Over the next few months Antonio will start to tend to the vines more regularly and we will start the Summer stone fruit harvest. Happy days!

02.01.2022 What a beautiful few weeks it has been in down south. The region has been buzzing with travellers and the farm has been busy with guests, tours and Antonio and I working hard in the kitchen gardens. Spring is certainly here though and we can feel Summer is around the corner. Here a few pics from around the farm just to share the beauty of Bridgetown. Have a wonderful week.
