Our Mates Farm is just down the road. Coreen Ung and Mathew Tack have turned an old, run down apple orchard into a thriving small farm, producing over 50 different varieties of apples, as well as lamb and pork. They believe in being radically transparent, and encourage their customers to come to the farm to understand where their food comes from, and while they're there, become mates.

Coreen takes us through the set up of the farm currently, how they use regenerative practices to manage their orchard organically. She also shares their story of how they chose to become farmers. It's inspirational and brave, and will motivate many of you who are thinking about doing something similar. Its an incredibly heart warming conversation that covers a variety of topics, including how growing food brings you and the community together.
