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 Long Haul

The Farm Blitzes below are incredible opportunities to get to know country and the people who care for it.

Reconnecting, both in the office and outside of it, for a new year of Fair Food action – or making ourselves useful in 2021.
Seeing the rabbit

The other day Marg Alexandra from Hazeldean Forest Farm delivered a ute-load of early season Summer Reds to the Fair Food warehouse. We talked a bit about family, timber, the apple season (it’s looking good) but mostly about farm succession.
