Live the best backyard experience

What grows in our backyard stays in our backyard.

Chickens, compost worms, and food grown in one Sydney loop. Scraps become soil. Soil becomes dinner. What grows here stays here.

Fresh

New from the backyard

See all

A dozen eggs from our Sydney backyard flock. The hens forage among the beds, and the yolks are deep gold.

Sun-ripened tomatoes from the backyard. Flavour first, never forced.

A mixed bunch harvested the same morning — whatever is happiest in the beds that week.

Finished worm castings — the black gold our garden runs on. What grows here stays here, and this is how we close the loop.

The loop

The flock turns leftovers into eggs and scratches the beds for the next planting.

Live compost worms work under the surface. Take a starter colony home.

Worm castings — the black gold this backyard runs on.

Closed loop

Peelings and hen scraps go to the worms. Castings go back to the beds. Surplus leaves the gate only when a neighbour collects it in Sydney.

We create black gold with composting, then feed it back to the same soil that fed us.
