After the recent Otways fires, we’re really happy to share that we will still have a crop of organic apples available this season 🍎

You can pick your own or purchase at the farm gate, by appointment - and March bookings are now open.

To book please contact Juli:
📞 Phone/Text: 0476 615 303
📧 Email: [email protected]

Due to the impact of the fires, we won’t be open for our usual three-month season, so get in quick before the apples are all gone.

We’ve had so many people asking how they can support us after the fires - simply liking, commenting, and sharing this post would mean the world and helps us more than you know ❤️

Thanks so much, everyone 🍏

Thank you to everyone who has reached out over the past week. It’s been a big and emotional week for the entire Otway community.

Our farm is safe, thanks to the incredible work of Forrest Fire Management, the CFA, and some very supportive neighbours.

The fire reached our fence line after a spot-over started in the bushland next door, but we’re incredibly grateful that there was no damage to our property.

Our apple trees and this year’s crop are stressed after the extreme heat, and we’re watering constantly to relieve the pressure and save as much of the crop as possible.

Thank you again for all the support and kind messages. We’re staying positive, but vigilant, as we move through the remainder of summer. 🍎❤️
