Our FoodGarden
Our gardening team has transformed an old paddock into a thriving food garden, cultivating nutrient-rich produce using regenerative techniques. Free from inorganic pesticides or artificial fertilisers, the garden's health is bolstered with compost and natural sprays, supplying fresh herbs, fruits, and vegetables to our restaurants and is for sale at the Cowshed Shop.
