Description
250 acre cattle farm situated in the rugged setting of the scenic Blue Mountains, just two and a half hours drive from Sydney. We are a short distance from the Jenolan Caves , Kanangara-Boyd National Park, Oberon and Mayfield Garden. Our farming family has been associated with the Jenolan Caves since they were first discovered in the 1880s, with four generations having worked at the caves over various times.
We have numerous animals here at the farm including miniature goats and sheep, alpacas, geese, ducks, turkeys, peacocks and guinea fowl. A real menagerie!

I am a fourth-generation farmer whose love for all things farming and animals comes from both my parents multigenerational farming background. I took over part of the farm in 2019, creating a home for an abundance of different animals. My background as a teacher sees me wanting to inform visitors of the benefits of sustainable living, engaging in agriculture and developing connectedness to country in an inclusive and supportive environment.
