Certified Organic farming encourages food production that nurtures our soil through the presence of rich compost, mulch, active and diverse soil insect and worm activity, cover cropping, crop rotation, companion planting, protection pure water supply, and support for biodiversity of cropping and the avoidance of pesticides, herbicides, and chemical fertilisers anywhere on the property.

Organic is about increasing soil nutrient, soil stability, and diversity and abundance of soil life, reducing erosion and building soil humus: rather than the continuous slow degrading of all the above that is the lot of most arable land in Australia.

Organic is also about the bigger picture of deliberately conserving bush remnants and generally planning to improve ecological stability, species diversity and ecological integrity on land that is often in decline from past farming practices.

Organic is about sustainability and building models of sustainable farming for all agriculture in the sustainable future.

By buying organic, we provide a market place for growers who have made the future of our planet a priority.
