Dave adding a bucket of our spent coffee to our compost bins.

Dave collects green waste from businesses like estabar as well as homes around Newcastle, takes it back to his family property on the lush banks of the Allyn River and returns it to earth.

When the compost becomes sweet smelling dirt again, he brings it to one of his urban farms – unused plots around the city - and grows vege’s.

He then sells his vege’s at Newcastle Farmers Market.

Dave also wants to help people (YOU), connect with their food and the earth. He offers a 1 Hour Farmer program where anyone can go and spend 1 hour on one of the farms, getting dirty, happy and inspired.

Dave and his sister Sarah, who you will also meet on these pages, are 5th generation farmers. They’re choosing to stay on the land, to keep producing food for our plates and to farm in a way that regenerates and sustains their fields.
