DISPATCHES FROM THE FARM

The fact is, the Victorian Central Highlands spa country is home to 80% of Australia's mineral water springs and has long  been a polestar for premium food and healing waters. Our indigenous traditional owners, the Jaara Jaara people prospered here prior to colonisation and are believed to have been drawn here for the prized waters and the rich source of foods.

I'll take you back to the farm next post. As I write this it's bucketing down rain again and the aformentioned arrival of spring seems to have recoiled as Mother Nature delivers us another moist and foggy, wintery day! The thing is we tend to get lots of toing and froing between winter and spring/summer weather here from this time of year even through to January some years. We have had to re-light the wood heater many a Christmas. Nothing like variety!
