Quattro Venti - New Italy Lifestyle Farm

Quattro Venti - New Italy Lifestyle Farm Say G'day to Bradd and Matt – Proud Owners of Quattro Venti! Hello from Bradd and Matt! It sounded perfect… at least on paper! Fate? Serendipity?

We’re the dynamic duo behind Quattro Venti, and yes, we really do pinch ourselves sometimes. Picture this: two lifelong Sydneysiders dreaming of ditching the “rat race” in favour of fresh air and freedom. During the whirlwind of COVID, we sold off our home in Picnic Point, NSW, swapped city traffic for coastal breezes, and landed on the Central Coast. But, soon enough, we realised we were still ca

ught in the old work routine—commuting back and forth and searching for that elusive balance. How Did We End Up in New Italy and at Quattro Venti? Here’s where things get interesting! One day, while RVing at Evans Head and armed with a trusty smartphone, we went on an epic “Google” adventure. Lo and behold, up popped a property twenty minutes inland from the coast—just waiting for two dreamers to claim it. Just plain good luck? We’re still not sure, but it felt like magic! The Quattro Venti Lifestyle Farm – Where Fun Meets Sustainability

Fast forward to today: at Quattro Venti, we’re living our best lives—embracing a better future and sharing a slice of it with our fantastic customers. Our lifestyle farm isn’t just about producing farm to plate produce; it’s about growing happiness, making memories, and putting smiles on faces. Balance, sustainability, and a connection to the land are what drive us, but fun is always at the heart of what we do!

Hi All,

This weather has been all over the place lately — hot, muggy, windy, and wet!

Just like us, our fluffy bum‑nut friends feel the changes even more, so their laying has slowed a little. But don’t worry — our girls are still working hard to deliver their eggy goodness in time for Christmas and the holiday season. Santa’s little helpers are doing their best!

Currently there is limited stock in store at Little Stray Winds @ $7 per dozen.

Pop down to Little Stray Winds in Woodburn to grab your eggs before or after Christmas Day, and while you’re there, treat yourself to a coffee or something delicious to eat or drink.

Little Stray Winds will be closed Christmas Day and New Year’s Day, but otherwise trading as normal: 6:30am – 2:30pm, Monday to Saturday.

The Quattro Venti & Little Stray Winds family wish you all a very happy, safe, and special holiday season. We can’t wait to share what we have planned for our local community in the new year.

🌟 Hi Community 🌟

You may have seen our previous posts about Quattro Venti New Italy Lifestyle Farm Pastured Free Range Eggs, along with the food‑journey showcases of me cooking up a storm for the Broadwater Hotel. Today, we’re excited to share some big news: a couple of weeks ago, we became the proud owners of Little Stray Café in Woodburn.

Our commitment remains the same — providing the community with a quality alternative to store‑bought eggs, available for purchase in the café at $7 a dozen.

This next step in our “food and beverage journey” is incredibly exciting as we continue bringing product to plate. Our eggs will feature throughout the café menu, alongside other locally produced and sourced goods.

🌬️ A Small Name Change with a Big Meaning
To honour the hard work and dedication that built the “Stray” brand across Evans Head and Woodburn, we’re making a gentle adjustment to the café name. Over time, it will become Little Stray Winds.

Why Winds?

Because Quattro Venti means Four Winds in Italian — and this café is a natural extension of our broader vision, a little “stray” offshoot of our business model that fits perfectly with who we are becoming.

🙏 Acknowledging the Journey

Bradd and I want to thank Damien and Jess for entrusting us with their legacy. We’re committed to honouring what they built while introducing an elevated food offering — a touch of gourmet, while keeping things real and approachable.

☕ Food & Coffee

Our partnership with Kwila Coffee remains strong, so your favourite brews aren’t going anywhere.
What is evolving is the food: flavour‑packed, thoughtful, and growing over time. We hope you’ll grow with us as we shape this next chapter.

🕡 Opening Hours

It’s only been 10 days since the ownership transition, and we’re currently open:
6:30am – 2:30pm, Monday to Saturday

❤️ Thank You

We truly appreciate the support so far and look forward to offering the region a quality café experience where customer service, conversation, and community are at our core.

We can’t wait to meet more of you, build relationships, and create a space where people feel welcome, safe, and appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your support.

Ouch! I had a feeling one of the girls had laid a whopper today—the noise coming from the Chicken Caravan 130 was something else—but I never expected a 95g egg! That’s our biggest yet since starting our pasture-raised, free-range egg business.

Feeling a bit cheeky during grading, I tried to line up the eggs by size for a photo op. It would’ve worked perfectly… if only the girls had given us an 85g egg to complete the sequence. No such luck!

Over the past few weeks, we’ve seen a steady increase in average egg size. In the beginning, most of our eggs were under 50g or in the 50–59g range, so we were mostly packing 500g and 600g cartons. But now that the flock has matured a bit, we’re seeing more eggs in the 60–70g range—hello, 700g cartons!

This whole adventure is part of our ten-year plan, and what a fun, fascinating, and humbling learning curve it’s been.

A huge shoutout to MyBelle Pantry at the New Italy Historic Museum Centre—our very first B2B partner! If you’re in the area, go check out what Michele has on offer in her beautiful local business.

Another big thank you to the Broadwater Hotel, our second B2B partner. It’s such a proud moment seeing our eggs featured in meals that customers can enjoy with a drink (or two… or three). So if you haven't had the opportunity to call in for a drink and a meal at this fabulous local pub, then make sure you do, It's well worth it!

Finally, we’re incredibly grateful to our loyal direct customers. Being new to the region, delivering eggs door to door has been a wonderful way to meet the community and feel welcomed.

Now, back to that oversized fluffy bum nut… we’ll see what tomorrow’s collection brings. Can we top 95g? God help that chicken.

A Culinary Adventure at Broadwater Hotel’s Mad Grub Monday!

What an incredible day in the Broadwater Hotel kitchen as we geared up for our Mad Grub Monday event! The prep was intense, the aromas were divine, and the menu — unforgettable.

We kicked things off with a global spread:

Butter Chicken paired with fragrant Vegetable Biryani

Fresh and zesty San Chow Bow

Classic Quiche Lorraine

Then, the kitchen transformed into a bustling Italian trattoria. Flour flew, the pasta machine roared, and I dove into crafting our in-house fresh pasta — made with Pasture-Raised Free Range eggs from Quattro Venti New Italy Lifestyle Farm. The result? A decadent Spinach and Ricotta Lasagne layered with a rich Italian Sausage Sugo.

🎉 Huge shoutout to Brad’s Butcher in Ballina — hands down the best Italian sausages I’ve tasted since moving to the region. Their quality truly elevated the dish.

If you haven’t experienced Mad Grub Monday yet, come join us at the Broadwater Hotel every Monday from 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM. Buy a drink, grab some grub, and treat yourself to a culinary journey.

I whipped up some café style poached eggs for breakfast this morning with our Pastured Free Range Eggs. "num, num, num!'

A tip I use to get that rounded poached egg, is to cure them for about 20mins in equal parts water/white vinegar. Using this trick allows larger volume of poached eggs to be prepped, ready to be cooked when serving larger numbers of hungry guests.
