25.01.2022 Happy mothers Day to all the wonderful mums

24.01.2022 Today we visited the beautiful town of Sheffield and had a really enjoyable time at Steamfest. So much heritage at this festival, and definitely worth a visit.

23.01.2022 National Eucalyptus Day - did you know Tasmania has 29 species of eucalyptus and 16 of these are endemic to our state. We have a few species on our farm and around our huts.

22.01.2022 Due to the recent developements with the novel coronavirus and social distancing requirements, we have decided to temporarily close our farmstay accommodation. As we offer an authentic farm experience to our guests, which include hands on activities in small groups we have decided as a precautionary measure this is the best decision at this time. Although we are closed for accommodation we are still available for enquiries and future bookings. ... Follow us on social media to keep updated with all the exciting things that happen on our farm, and remember, all small businesses are going to need your support during and after this epidemic.

22.01.2022 After a sleepless night checking on a cow in labour we finally decided to get the vet at 7am. Farmer Phil and I usually deliver our calves but he hurt his back delivering the last one. After an hour or so we had beautiful twin calves born, both breach. Mum and babies are doing fine.
