October 2009


This year would have been just about impossible without the help of the Wwoofers that we get.

What is a Wwoofer?, you say.  Well they are usually backpackers travelling Australia and wanting to see more than the cities and tourist spots can offer, and wanting to have a “Real” Australian experience.  They are sometimes Australians wanting to experience where their food comes from.

The worst part about it most of the time is saying goodbye.

We have been blessed with the most amazing Wwoofers this year!.  We had a Family from the UK that had an organic farm so they really new what they were doing!!  Gary and Matt (UK) stayed with us on and off for over 3 months, and we have never laughed so much or enjoyed our farm as much as when they were with us.  Laura and Paul (UK) were absolutely fantastic.  Laura became the foster mum of several piglets and sent us loads of beautiful photos that she took of the farm. Soi (Korea) was like a sister to me and her time here was too short.

Thank you to all that have stayed and helped out.!!

I (Miriam) will be at the Mrs Flannery’s Robina store on Sat 7th November for tasting our delicious Certified Organic Ham and New Certified Organic Salami Range and answer all your curly questions about how we grow our certified Organic Pork and then how it is made into such delicious and nutritious treats as the certified Organic range of smallgoods that we make.  It will be great to see you there!!

Then on Sunday the 8th, I will be back at the Northey St Organic Markets with Alaringa Organics. I had a heap of fun meeting you and catching up with some past clients (I still can’t believe it has been about 3 yeas since I was travelling up to Bris Vegas Every weekend for the Farmers Markets)

The drive home this time was pretty eventful with the car deciding it wanted to stay a little longer in the big smoke.  Luckily I have some great friends who helped me find a mobile mechanic (or helped him find me) and we got the parts and got me back on the road by lunchtime.

Well every month is organic month here on farm… but for the rest of Australia as well October is Organic month.   One of our Queensland groups of retail outlet stores, Wray Organics has taken this onboard and has a whole host of specials across their 4 stores in Newmarket, Palm Beach, Broadbeach and Indooroopilly. (Including specials on the Pasture Perfect® Pork small goods!) I was at the Palm Beach store 2 weeks ago sampling the range, and will be at Newmarket on the 24th October.  I would love to see you there if you can make it!!
