Not many meat chickens get to see sunsets, or be outdoors at all. Our ‘camping chooks’ sit quietly together watching the sky from their safe tents ⛺️ Guinea fowl seem to have taken ownership around the farm, keeping watch and even spotting a feral cat yesterday. #farmlife #pets #animalsofinstagram #campinglife #broilerchicken #guineafowl #taraleeorchards #southernflindersranges #wintersunsets See MoreSee Less

Pip is such a battler 🧡 No unfortunately we weren’t finished after last update. CT scans revealed that missing piece. It’s amazing she’s survived this ordeal. Be grateful and treasure who you have, I’ve sure learnt that 🐶 See MoreSee Less

Tomatoes are amazing! This season I planted a fair few heirloom varieties I haven’t tried before- how cool are the tiny Kaleidoscope Jewels! 🏳️‍🌈Beat my largest tommy record with a Black Krim at 711g. They are thriving in this heat. #heirloomtomatoes🍅 #tomatoes #kaleidoscope #wirrabara #taraleeorchards #tomatoseason #heirloomseeds #gardenpick #tomato #gianttomato #cheerytomatoes #yellowpear #southernflindersranges #localproduce #summercrop See MoreSee Less

Checking the gardens and orchard today gave some surprising finds! Pretty giant size pumpkins have secretively been growing healthily. Peaches and Narrabeen plums are ripe and we are picking daily. Love the fruit and veg season 🪴 See MoreSee Less
