Lexi’s Big Moment! 🐾
Our clever girl, Lexi, has tracked down her very first ripe truffle of the season, completely unaided. Watch out world, she’s a certified superstar in the making! 🌟

While this first little gem is perfectly ripe, it is still a tad early for the full flavour and aroma to have developed. The peak season is a few weeks away, which is when those signature, complex truffle flavours will truly deepen and intensify.

Keep an eye on our feed—the countdown to peak season is officially on! 🖤

❄️ Winter has arrived in Gembrook, and with it, the magic of truffle season! 🪵✨

Did you know that the chilly winter weather is actually our best friend? While the frosty mornings keep us wrapped up tight, that icy chill is exactly what triggers our truffles to fully mature and develop their flavour.

Stay warm out there, and get ready for a delicious season ahead! 🥂

One of the most asked questions when talking truffle is: “Do you have a truffle pig?” 🐷

While tradition often points to pigs, we rely on a much more reliable (and less hungry!) partner: our incredible truffle dog, Lexi.

She is trained to signal the find, with her incredibly sharp sense of smell allowing her to pinpoint exactly which truffles are at peak ripeness.

Pedicure time for the shetlands!

We made the most of the warm weather yesterday before the rain came today and brought all the shetlands in for their regular beauty treatment. They all (even the 2 trouble makers) lined up patiently for their brush and hoof trim, and were rewarded with a tasty treat for their good behavior. It’s amazing what a calm approach and persistence can do! 🐴🧲🍎

Happy Goats 🐐

We’ve been busy ticking off some projects around the farm. This included a new home for our goats, Vinnie & Louie, with more space to roam free.

Can confirm they are happy with their new home 😊

Honoured to stand with our community at the Gembrook Dawn Service this morning. It was wonderful to see such a strong turnout from our local community coming together to pay our respects.

A huge thank you to the Gembrook RSL for hosting us and providing a much-appreciated breakfast afterward. We’re heading back into town shortly for the March—proud to watch the boys join their fellow Scouts.

Lest we forget 🌺

Here at the farm, we don’t just grow truffles! 🍄✨
Our resident garden guru, Grammy, has been working her magic in the soil again. Today, we rolled up our sleeves to process her incredible harvest. From the patch to the pantry, every inch of the farm is bursting with flavor right now! 🌿👩‍🌾
We’ve been busy prepping for:
* 🔥 The ultimate Sunday roast
* 🥣 Hearty, warming soups
* 🥒 Tangy homemade pickles
* 🍅 Rich, slow-cooked pasta sauce
* 🍎 And a little something sweet for dessert!
Nothing beats the taste of produce grown with this much love. There’s a whole lot of hard work in every jar and every bowl.

Why the white dust? 🔍 When a truffle breaks the surface or a crack appears, it’s vulnerable to the elements and pests. We carefully cover every opening with limestone to protect them from rot and ensure they have every chance to mature and develop their aroma.

The countdown to harvest is officially on. Stay tuned! ⏳🍄

✨ The Ground is Moving! ✨
Something magic is happening beneath the soil at the farm. If you look closely, you’ll see the tell-tale signs that truffle season is just around the corner! 🌳💎

We’re starting to spot mounds and cracks in the dirt signaling a truffle is expanding right underneath.

A few cheeky rabbits have already done some “prospecting” for us, uncovering a couple of early finds!

The countdown to harvest is officially on. Stay tuned! ⏳🍄
