WHAT WE DO
Tathra Homestead revolves around an olive grove, vegetable garden and our ladies, the free-range chickens. We have reintroduced both plant and animal biodiversity to the property over more than 25 years and have implemented chemical-free production throughout the property.
We produce extra virgin olive oil, artisan food products, fresh vegetables and herbs and free range eggs.
OUR PROPERTY NAME
‘Tathra’ is an aboriginal word meaning ‘beautiful country’ and was chosen by Kim and Joy as the property’s name in 1991 when our family moved in.
