Our Story
We’ve had this farm for 17 years and have been growing strawberries here for 15 years. Our Tinaberry strawberries have a loyal following amongst the Bundaberg locals and we’re known for our big tasty ice creams!
As well as strawberries, we also grow passion fruit, we have a macadamia tree nursery and we’re always developing our agricultural farm tourism offering.
We have a tight-knit team that work together to produce the best tasting strawberries in the area and have fun whilst doing it.
