バイロンベイヒンターランドティークツリーファーム

David and myself (Tina) always dreamed about moving from Sydney to the majestic Northern Rivers. David is from a Metal Engineering background and myself from a Marketing and then Horticultural backgrounds.

We firstly purchased a property in Myocum approx. 10 acres in 2012. I went back to college and studied Agriculture /Beef Cattle Production. We also joined Brunswick Valley Landcare and became involved in many projects from Education to planting out a Koala Corridor on our property. We then purchased our first 6 cows. We started breading and hence needed more land.

This is when the purchase of Teak Tree Farm happened in November 2015. The farm was built in 1905 and were told it was either a knock down or an extremely long and costly renovation. We restored to farm house in 3months and stuck to a small budget. This meant we had to do most of the work ourselves. I think it is refered to as blood. sweat and tears. We now run many more cattle and let out the property for Holiday rentals. It is also offered to many families from Bear Cottage in desperate need of respite. To date we have planted over 2,500 trees for Koalas and wildlife.

David and myself still live on our little 10 acre farm. We have many animals including, cows, horses big and small, ducks, geese, chickens, turkeys, dogs and many native birds and animals. We love our guests bringing there children to our home to visit our funny farm. We also have our children nearby and one of my daughters , her husband and child living with us. We grow many of our own vegetables and have a large variety of fruit & nut trees.( Lemons, oranges, manderine's, tangerine, limes, finger limes, lychee's, apples, pears , Mango's and Macadamia Trees.) Mango's.

We love our life on the Northern Rivers and enjoy sharing our beautiful homes.
