Your Story

Kit,  Anna and Toby Anderson manage two properties in Cowaramup. One is a 33Ha block that we run a small flock of sheep on (shedders), it also has two small vineyard plots. The other property is a recently acquired 45Ha block, it has ~4.5Ha (1,800 avocado trees on it), 6Ha of vineyard, 110ML water license, and we plan to run more sheep.
Kit and Anna have recently come from a broadacre farming operation in Kojonup and Toby lives and works locally as a carbon project facilitator at the Carbon Farming Foundation.
