Our established display garden features over thirty edible species of native food plants.
We have been welcoming visitors to the farm since the mid-1990s offering a range of unique foodie and educational experiences that showcase the fantastic flavours and aromas of amazing plants like anise myrtle, strawberry gum, finger lime and mountain pepper. These plants feature in out new native foods dukkah.
