Autumn sunshine captured through our stone pine, bunya and carob trees in the Murrnong campground. Getting ready for the Easter weekend ahead, still a few spots available (Search Murrnong Farm on Hipcamp, or see linktree in bio) to enjoy the long weekend at the farm. Photograph by

We have an opportunity for one or more new fig customers.
Our lush figs are best suited to restaurants and bakeries. We aim for firm enough to slice, often too soft for the extra handling of domestic retail.
Melbs deliveries to west of Hawthorn, north of St Kilda, and east of Ascot Vale.
All trays are mixed varieties... mostly white adriatic, black genoa and persian prolific.
Credit the rich flavour to healthy soil life from 29 years of organic practices.

We had a dry spring, then at solstice, December 21, the forecast was 4 - 30 mm rain, 25% chance of greater than 30mm. We received 106mm, similarly the 800 hectare catchment of our little creek. Hoowee, we were very lucky. The creek overflowed through the Murrnong floodplain forest, and replenished the dam.
A lovely flood event that Murrnong is designed to embrace.

Join us for our 2026 Permaculture Design Course. We meet for 7 weekends over 5 months, bite-sized chunks of rich learning, with a catch-up back at Murrnong one year after completion. Every day is located at one or more permaculture demonstration sites, ranging from houses in streets to rural properties.
Food, fun and friends

Ash camped here, and came to hang out with the goat kids while I was milking. Waggy and Bobbles are on the bench with her, Cruisey is cruising around at her feet.
