Food with flavour from the ground up.
When our family moved from suburban Melbourne to rural Chintin in the East of the Macedon Ranges, we were almost immediately rewarded by seeing our efforts to improve the previously unmanaged land transform into flourishing forests, along with increased diversity of the pastures.
Chin Chin Farm is a mixed farming enterprise with a philosophy that begins by looking after the soil and remediating the land. The resulting lush grass and adjoining native forests work in harmony, ensuring that everything grown on the farm is enhanced with flavour from the ground up.
Our growing flock of Australian White Sheep enjoy the feed that grows from the improved soil prepared for over 15,000 food-grade lavender plants, which in turn, along with the native bushland, nourishes our healthy apiary of honey bees. We are complementing our award winning Lavender Essential Oil by also growing a variety of Australian native bushfoods to cook and distill.
Our family benefits too, by working hard and enjoying our environment and the fruits of our labour. The Chin Chin Farm sheep enjoy a scratch behind the ears and the plants and bees are happy…. and so are the Whiteman Family!
