Exploring the Sunshine Coast's Natural Wonders

A Sustainable, Hands-On Lifestyle Experience
Blackwattle Farm is the result of a family's dream to embrace a more sustainable, hands-on way of living. In 2015, the owners decided to embark on this journey, and they now strive to grow as much of their own food as possible, including meat, eggs, fruit, honey, jams, vegetables, and herbs. They also aim to source locally for anything they don't produce on the farm, ensuring low food miles and supporting other local farmers.
Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, a family-friendly getaway, or an immersive farm experience, Blackwattle Farm offers a unique opportunity to connect with nature, learn about sustainable living, and create unforgettable memories. We look forward to welcoming you to our little slice of paradise on the Sunshine Coast.
