Low sun glows behind a band of clouds over a misty farm field, with a line of trees along the horizon. A dark wire fence runs across the foreground.

Things are definitely slowing down on the farm with Sally and Patrick getting ready for a big break away from the garden and grape harvesting finished for another year. Even though Sally and Patrick are heading off for a bit, weekly harvesting will still be taking place thanks to Hannah stepping in while they’re away.

The forecast for the coming week is cool sunny days - perfect outdoors weather and extra perfect for spending some time on the front verandah enjoying an organic tea or coffee! Early mornings are especially lovely, with sheep wandering past in the vineyard on one side, magpies and Baudin’s cockatoo’s out the front and goats and chooks wandering around on the other side.

The goats get taken for walks, which they absolutely love. Here’s Sunny saying hello as we arrived in their paddock the other day.
