What People Say About our Farm Tours?

“Thirty 15-year-old Cape Byron Rudolf Steiner students spent a wonderful week at Warrah Specialist School and Farm this November. Amongst the many highlights was the morning spent working with Steve on the farm. He gave our Class 9 students a tour of the farm, from the flower beds of vibrant snapdragons to paddocks of cow manure collected for biodynamic preparations. He then got them to work harvesting strawberries, weeding the chard tunnel and pitchforking cow poo into the barrow. What the students loved most was sitting under the shade of a tree and yarning with Steve, who was generous and patient in his sharing of knowledge about the land, biodynamics, farming and sustainability. Several also enjoyed getting to pack boxes and help out in the shop. Thank you, Steve and Warrah Farm!”
