Frank and Dan’s unusual relationship
The idea was if Frank did the harvesting himself bit by bit and Dan bought the logs directly from Frank then most of the tree’s value would stay on Frank’s farm.
A walk in Maurie’s gumboots
Maurie knows cutting asparagus is a slog – starting as early as 2am, working by torchlight, walking five kilometres a day in diving boots, cutting 300kgs of asparagus – it’s not for everyone.
Caring for the Mother Tree
In times of trouble we seek sanctuary and in weeks like these CERES, more than ever, feels like a Mother Tree.
Birds, trees, beetroot and olives
So much happening around CERES during this wintery weather! From firewood and awards for Fair Wood, to our waste-free beetroot curry workshop, and Joes Garden Feathery Fundraiser (complete with bird-themed dress up) at the farm gate. Busy season!
The Stretch
So far Fair Food customers have generously paid forward more than $15,000 to help put on the Friday markets.
