Lakey Farm—We Put Back More Than We Take

REGENERATIVE FARMING

At Lakey Farm, we are converting CO2 into soil carbon by our judicious regenerative farming. Low stocking rates, rotational mixed grazing, respecting native pasture, cover cropping, native tree revegetation and wildlife corridors, and use of dung beetles.

Rotational Grazing

Livestock are moved through our paddocks, the rotations are timed to allow native grasses and forbs to flower and set seed

Vitello Tonnato

May 18 2020

A fantastic party plate, according to Guy Grossi of Grossi Florentino, and we believe that! Although we haven't had a chance to test-run this dish in a party setting yet (thank you COVID-19), we thoroughly enjoyed devouring it as a party of two. Our take on this recipe has been adapted from Guy Grossi's version, published in Gourmet Traveller.

Beef Stir-fry with Plum Sauce

May 12 2020

Super quick and irresistibly tasty, this simple stir-fry is a no-fuss favourite. Crunchy green beans and broccoli contrast wonderfully against the sweet, succulent beef. Serve with fluffy white jasmine rice for a filling, well-balanced meal.
