HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO WILLIAM & CHLOE! 🎉🐐

Diana and Brad were wonderful to work with, thoughtfully organising catering to suit a range of dietary requirements, beautiful farm-inspired decorations, and not one but two birthday cakes to make sure everyone could celebrate.

We’re loving watching new families explore the farm, meet the animals, enjoy the open space while celebrating special occasions.

If you’re thinking about celebrating a birthday with us, we’d love to help make it happen.

What a weekend! 😮‍💨🤩
Rosa needed to take five under the bench after the rush dissipated 😴😂

Our busiest weekend since taking over Benton Rise Farm back in August, and we’re feeling incredibly grateful. The support, encouragement and feedback from this community has honestly blown us away. It’s pretty special seeing so many people resonate with what Benton Rise is all about.

We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding as we ran low on a lot of stock after the overwhelming turnout the last four days.

Huge shout out to Tracey, Lisa, Lola, Rosa and Kat for the dig-deep efforts, teamwork and care they brought across the weekend. We got there crew! 🙌🏽 Full sinks, tickets on top of tickets, lightning pace and everyone stepped up for each other. Couldn’t be prouder of this team!

This place is growing into something really special, and we’re excited to keep building it alongside this incredible community.

Some things aren’t meant to be exactly the same every single batch.

elderflower cordial is one of them.

Mel hand harvests the elderflowers from her property, then blends them with orange juice to bring a little citrus brightness. Usually it’s blood orange. This batch? Regular oranges, because that’s what she had on hand

And honestly, we love that!

It’s the beauty of truly small batch, handmade produce. Seasons shift. Crops vary. Ingredients change. Nothing is engineered to be identical forever.

Just real people making real food, with what nature gives them that week.

Customer Creations!

Dianne and her family visited the farm for Mother’s Day and came across our organically grown Mount Martha figs while they were browsing in the train.

She’d been searching for quality figs at a reasonable price for a recipe she wanted to make, and left with almost 1kg of our juicy, jammy figs grown with passion by Rita & Andrew.

And here’s the result.

Fresh local produce, grown by small farmers and enjoyed around the family table. Exactly how it should be!

“So, what is Benton Rise Farm?”

I often get halfway through answering this question and realise… it’s hard to put in one box.

“Wait… so are you a café?”
“A produce store?”
“A farm?”
“A place for the kids?”

Yes. But also…

We’re the place you come for a coffee and somehow stay for hours.

Where the kids disappear into trams, gardens and animal feeding while you finally get a moment to sit with friends.

Where this week’s produce from local growers ends up on your table days later, not weeks.

Where conversations happen over coffee, muddy boots and bags of apples.

Where farmers, makers and families all cross paths.

A café.
A produce store.
A farm.
A park.
A slow day out.
A little community hub.

We’re a bit of everything, really. And we like it that way.

From Farm to Juice: Erin’s Weekly Ritual

🍏🥬🫚🍋

Every week, Erin pops down to Benton Rise Farm, filling her basket with celery, ginger, apples, lemons, and fresh apple juice, everything she needs for her homemade juice; produce that in many cases, was still in the ground at local farms that week!

By the weekend, it’s washed, chopped, juiced and poured into a glass at home.

Thanks, Erin, for letting us be part of your weekly ritual!

Check out the full process in the photos, and maybe get inspired for your own.

🐒🐘🦒Happy 1st Birthday Xavier!🦒🐘🐒

Thanks to Xavier’s family for choosing The Farm to host their little guy’s first birthday.

Steph and her extended family and friends did a wonderful job creating a Wild One Jungle themed birthday in the marquee.

Litter Kids and big kids had a lovely slow, relaxed day exploring, meeting the sheep, goats and chickens and playing tram driver!

🚂✨What’s landed in the Train this week

The shelves are full and it’s feeling so seasonal 🍂🍁Here’s a taste of what’s waiting for you:

🍎New season apples
Kalei, Granny Smith apples, Pink Lady apples, plus Certified organic Jazz apples and organic Fuji apples. Crisp, sweet, and exactly how apples should taste this time of year.
🍝Island Pasta restock (plus exclusive lines)
A restock of pasta and sauces, including Luca’s passata, made abd bottled freshly on Thursday! You won’t find this liquid gold anywhere else!pasta
🍓Rocky Creek strawberries
Still going strong into May. Not something you see every year, so worth taking advantage while they’re here.

🍸Peninsula Blvd syrup mixers
Made from rescued fruit and botanicals from their distillery process. Proper use of what would otherwise go to waste.

☕️Take-home café favourites
Beans and hot choccy from Prodigal Coffee, roasted locally by Caleb & Dan in Hastings.

🫚Caravan Chai
Spicy, warming, and built for the cooler mornings that are starting to roll in.

🍅Mumma Made – fresh drop
Now under new ownership with Sonia taking over from Louise. This is one of the most asked-about ranges in the shop, so we’re proud to continue our support of these deeelicious products!

Every shelf here is a choice to back the real growers and makers. When you pick up your weekly shop here, you’re helping to keep those local, small operators moving.

Pop through, have a look, and stock up for the week!
