Get Involved
A farm's only as good as its neighbours
So there are a few ways to get involved. Come for a tour and a meal pulled from the ground that morning, or get your hands dirty at one of our workshops. Bring your team out for a corporate day that beats another meeting room. Bring a class of kids who've never seen where a carrot starts. Or pick our brains — we take on consultancy for growers and groups figuring out systems of their own.
Live nearby? Drop your veggie scraps in the bins out the front any time — just hold the fruit stickers, plastics and anything that didn't grow. It all goes back into the soil via our compost system that feeds the neighbourhood. Want to be part of it, but skip the mud? Become a member.
Corporate volunteering
Step off-screen and into the garden. Spend a half-day or a full one in the beds — planting, harvesting, prepping, whatever the farm needs that morning — alongside the kind of conversation that never quite happens across a meeting table.
We keep groups small so the day stays personal, and it ends the only way it should: a shared lunch featuring the produce we just picked.
Want the afternoon for strategic planning instead? We've got covered space and whiteboards, and we'll shape the day around whatever your team's chasing.
Everyone leaves with mud on their boots and a clearer head.
-
Two formats. The half-day is a walk through the beds and compost, a solid block of hands-on work, and a shared lunch from the garden. The full day stretches that out — more time in the dirt, or an afternoon shaped around your team's goals. Either way, mud and a clearer head.
-
Closed-toe shoes and clothes you don't mind getting muddy. We run in all weather. The greenhouses and covered outdoor area mean the day goes ahead whatever the sky's doing — worst case, you're potting up under cover instead of harvesting in the sun.
-
We keep groups small — around ten — so the day feels personal and everyone gets their hands in the dirt, rather than standing around watching someone else do it. We accept smaller groups, but there is a minimum cost of $500 for half day and $1000 for full day.

School groups
School groups are some of our favourite mornings. Whether the class is deep in a sustainability unit, working through food systems, a few hours on the farm gives them them a new perspective on where their food comes from.
We've watched kids who'd never seen a vegetable growing pull a carrot straight from the dirt and eat it on the spot. That's the kind of thing that sticks.
-
A guided wander through the growing beds and the compost systems, proper hands-in-the-dirt time (planting, harvesting or composting, depending on what the season's doing), and plenty of room to poke around and ask questions.
-
Students bring their own lunch and are welcome to eat on the farm.

Duration: 2–3 hours, weekdays only
Group size: Minimum 25 students
Cost: $25 per student
Farm Tours & Workshops
Come spend a morning where your food actually grows. One of the farmers walks you through the beds and the compost, and it ends the only sensible way — a shared meal pulled from the ground that same day.
Bring your team, your community group, or just your curiosity. We'll do our best to sort you out.

Volunteering
Want to see the farm as up close as you can get? There’s always a mix of tasks for our regular volunteer crew. We run volunteer days on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7am - 2pm.
If you are interested, please get in touch via the form below.
consulting
We've spent years working out what grows here, what stubbornly won't, and how to keep a small farm standing through a SEQ summer. Happy to hand the lot over.
Whether you're starting a market garden, setting up a compost system, or getting a community food project off the ground, we'll help you skip a few of the mistakes we've already made on your behalf.
Tell us what you're building, and we'll work out how we can help.
