Summer Workshops
This summer Tree Frog will be putting on a series of workshops in Newcastle and out on a fantastic “No-commitment permaculture lifestyle” property near the Watagans, 45 min from Newcastle and just over an hour from Sydney.

End of spring special
Chickens are sold out!
Hi all,
Due to extreme popularity all of our chickens have been pre-purchased and we won’t be accepting any more orders this year.
We will continue to raise chicks but can’t expand any further due to the small size of our property.
Sorry!
Chris
Spring Chickens!
