Maktub Biodynamic Farm

Maktub Biodynamic Farm This relatively small area provides the family with honey, eggs, lamb, fruit and vegetables.

Maktub Biodynamic Farm is a sanctuary for people and wildlife, a place where you can find stillness, reconnect with nature and take time to rediscover the magic of living simply. A very comprehensive bio-dynamic vegetable garden which has evolved (in 25 years) from a blackberry infested paddock with a house and shed and one sapling gum tree under the guidance of Chrissie and Michael Rowland. Chrissie’s Italian heritage on her father’s side and her Mother’s love of herbs and flowers instilled in her a connection with the earth and gardening at a young age. Her study of homeopathy and interest in Rudolf Steiner’s writings on agriculture sparked her interest in herbs and their culinary and medicinal use as well as in maintaining the garden using biodynamic principles. Miniature pony, “Winnie the Pooh”, and a worm farm contribute to the richness of the garden while Dutch Bantams provide help with pest control in the berry patch and veggie garden. Bees do their work in pollination as well as providing the family with honey. We happily welcome by prior arrangement Willing Workers on Organic Farms (WWOOFers) and HELPX to share our piece of paradise .

FOR SALE : Meal worm farm $100

Mealworms are ideal live and valuable source of nutrients and protein food insects for ducks, guinea fowl, geese, finches and soft bills.

They are super easy to breed and feed. Farm comes complete - just add oats or bran and veggies to keep them happy, healthy and reproducing. Tasmanian natives such as kookaburras, magpies, butcherbirds, bats and small mammals like bandicoots, sugar gliders, bats and possums love them too.

100g of dried worms sell for $10-$15 in pet food shops.

One of our guests left a heartwarming review, saying: "Dreamiest, quaintest little house I've ever stayed in + If Peter Rabbit's treehouse was built for humans this is what I picture it to look like." They adored the peaceful ambiance, the lack of TV, and the cozy wood fire. The guest also loved the breathtaking views, the vibrant indoor plants, and the charming sound of chickens clucking in the morning. Chrissie, the host, was friendly and respectful of their privacy. The guest is eager to return for a longer stay. Visit https://www.booking.com/Pulse-YCir58 to see for yourself!

Maktub Farm

A very comprehensive bio-dynamic vegetable garden which has evolved (in 20 years) from a blackberry infested paddock with a house and shed and one sapling gum tree under the guidance of Chrissie and Michael Rowland.

Chrissie’s Italian heritage on her father’s side and her Mother’s love of herbs and flowers instilled in her a connection with the earth and gardening at a young age. Her study of homeopathy and interest in Rudolf Steiner’s writings on agriculture sparked her interest in herbs and their culinary and medicinal use as well as in maintaining the garden using biodynamic principles. Michael keeps bees and bonsai and cares for the mixed fruit and nut orchards. He has a passion for biodynamics. This relatively small area provides the family with honey, eggs, lamb, fruit, nuts, berries and vegetables. Miniature pony, “Winnie the Pooh”, and a worm farm contribute to the richness of the garden while Dutch Bantams provide help with pest control in the berry patch and veggie garden. Bees do their work in pollination as well as providing the family with honey.
