🐣 Exciting News at Chimney Creek Farm! 🐣
We’ve got baby chicks! 🐥 It’s been such a joy to hear their tiny chirps and watch them explore their new world. But… we weren’t quite prepared for them to be so young!
They’re still so small and delicate, so we’ve had to scramble to get everything set up just right—a safe home, bedding, and their tiny food and water dishes. It’s been a bit of a learning curve, but we’re loving every moment.
These little fluff balls have already brought so much life to the farm, and we can’t wait to see them grow! Stay tuned for updates (and adorable chick footage!).
Have you ever raised chicks before? We’d love to hear your tips and stories! 💛

🌿 Hi friends!🌿 Life on Chimney Creek Farm is always an adventure, and we’ve been busy with some exciting off-grid projects lately. In our latest video, we’re sharing the progress we’ve made on our outhouse, including adding a shower window (finally!) and creating a new garden bed for flowers for the bees. 🐝🌸
We even went to check out some massive greenhouses gifted to us by friends—it’s a daunting task to bring them home, but we’re up for the challenge!
This lifestyle is full of ups and downs, but we wouldn’t trade it for anything. We’d love for you to join us on this journey and see what we’ve been up to.

🌿 Spring has arrived on our little off-grid patch of Australia!
This season brings growth, wildlife, and a special project close to our hearts—planting flowers in memory of our daughter. It’s a simple, heartfelt day of gardening, nurturing our land, and finding beauty in nature’s cycles.
In this video, we share:
🌸 Planting new flowers, shrubs, and vines
🍓 Tips for growing raspberries and caring for native plants
🦋 Encounters with kangaroos, butterflies, and nesting birds
🍰 Wrapping up with a homemade rhubarb pie
Our garden is far from perfect, but it’s ours—a mix of hard work, love, and lessons learned. If you’d like to join us on this journey of off-grid living, we’d love to share it with you. 💛

🌿 Hey everyone! I wanted to share a new video with you about life on Chimney Creek Farm as we prepare for the changing seasons. With summer heat waves on the way, we’re getting our garden ready by planting seedlings, using permaculture techniques, and making sure our homestead can thrive through the challenges.
I also share a heartfelt visit with my family, where I embraced Thai culture and the importance of community. It's moments like these that keep me grounded and grateful as we continue our off-grid journey.
I’d love for you to join me in this video, where we work the land, cherish memories, and embrace the beauty of simple living. Your support means the world to us, and I hope you find inspiration in our story. 🌻✨

🌱Hey friends! We've been hard at work on the homestead as spring makes way for a hot summer, and I wanted to share what we've been up to. From transplanting our trees and plants to mulching the garden to retain precious moisture, each step is preparing us for the challenges of the season ahead.
In this video, we also share insights from our final permaculture class with Lana, where we learned so many practical, affordable tips for improving our land—lessons that we’ll carry with us for years to come.
I hope you’ll join us as we reflect on what this season has taught us, the joy of watching our hard work come to life, and how we're readying ourselves for the hot days ahead. Your support means everything, and we’d love for you to come along on this journey with us. 🌿✨

Hey everyone! We’ve just uploaded a new video sharing our journey of transforming our off-grid land into a thriving food forest using permaculture! 🌱✨
In this episode, we talk about all the incredible lessons we’ve learned recently—from regenerating compact soil, growing King Stropharia mushrooms 🍄, and making no-turn compost to restoring biodiversity with native wattles and much more!
We also had some fun moments, like discovering a redback spider in our compost bin 🕷 and winning some special wattle trees 🌳 at Granite Borders Landcare’s Wattle Day. It’s been such a wild ride, and we can’t wait to share it with you!
Grab a cuppa, join us by the fire 🔥, and let’s dive into the world of permaculture together. Watch the video here: https://youtu.be/BufIC4arV5A

Welcome! In August 2021 our family bought 140 acres off the grid in Australia. We called it Chimney Creek Farm and we are transitioning to a more self-sufficient lifestyle. My name is Tina and I enjoy making handmade products botanically based and inspired by nature. Returning to a simpler lifestyle, learning to live with the cycles of nature and cultivating gratefulness, less dependence, more responsibility, reconnection with nature and the love of our planet - living more sustainably is not only for our own good, but for the good of the planet and for civilization. Thank you for joining us here.
