Gatherer Forager

We weren’t born into farming, but life in Sydney’s inner west and the Blue Mountains in NSW eventually gave way to the rolling hills of Southern Tasmania. We’ve always been a creative, spending our early years immersed in Sydney’s art scene. After a backpacking adventure through Europe, we returned home with a growing family and hearts full of wanderlust. Slovenia, with its charming small farms, captured our imagination, and back in Australia, the birth of our first daughter sparked a yearning for a simpler life.

That’s when we discovered permaculture, a natural path towards self-sufficiency and a slower pace. For the past 12 years, we’ve been learning the ropes on rented small farms in Oberon NSW and Tasmania. We raise heritage chickens, keep happy bees with natural methods, have a friendly Jersey cow, homeschool our kids, and grow much of our own food.

Buying our own land is a dream we hold close, but for now, this little haven is our focus. We’re transforming it into a thriving permaculture farm and bee sanctuary, all while leaving a light footprint on the earth. It’s important to us that our business buzzes with sustainability, nourishing both our family and the planet.

Our story is rooted in the earth and each season whispers its secrets, inspiring us to craft unique offerings that capture the essence of our farm.
We create products inspired by the seasons using ingredients grown on our farm and choose eco-friendly materials to package our products. Discover our collections of heirloom seeds, soaps, preserves, honey, tea and natural skin care.
