Outside, the property is a nature lover's dream. A permaculture design includes swales, two connecting spring-fed dams stocked with Silver Perch, plus native tree belts providing windbreaks and shade for livestock.

The soil has been carefully aerated using a combination of biodynamic activated rock dust, lime, Nutri-soil and worm juice, providing a nutrient-rich foundation for crops and livestock. To further promote the health of the land, lucerne tree plantings throughout the property supplement fodder for livestock and act as windbreaks. 1,000 Native trees have been planted to provide additional natural resources and biodiversity.
