The Beach Organics property is a four hectare parcel of land situated in a valley overlooking the beautiful Southern Ocean. Purchased as a vacant and treeless paddock in 1984, by the owner Barry Beach and run according to sustainable organic growing practices for over two decades, it complies with the organic standards of Australia and guidelines prescribed by N.A.S.A.A. A diverse ecology has evolved over several decades leaving a property with a distinct permaculture influence.

Situated on the beautiful Fleurieu Peninsula, the Beach Organics property is located between the coastal townships of Port Elliot and Middleton.

The property has been extensively re-vegetated and landscaped with thousands of native trees planted and over thirty different types of fruit trees co-existing with dozens of different types of seasonal vegetables and herbs.

Poultry are used extensively to enhance soil fertility, recycle garden waste, reduce pests and weeds, provide superb free range eggs and adjust soil ph. Beehives are also part of the landscape. Vegetable gardens are small but intensive poly-cultures often situated between tree-scapes, taking advantage of important micro-climates. A small owner built mud brick cottage has been built, as well as a mud brick wood oven. Swales and dams have been constructed to harvest precious rainwater. Clever, simple, innovative hand tools are used extensively in the food gardens.

Surplus produce is sold to discerning customers at the Willunga Farmers Market, Farm Gate and selected outlets.

Customised tours are available upon request.
