Tim and Amber from Kandanga Farm in the Mary Valley, are a Certified Organic working cattle farm, are all about regenerative agriculture, low stress, holistic practices, and working in harmony with nature! They graze their animals to mimic natures natural patterns. “K2 Beef – higher eating, is fully certified organic & entirely grass-fed. Their cattle are born and raised on the farm and have extremely low food miles.

Why call their beef K2? Well vitamin k2 has been referred to as the “missing link”. It is found in grass fed animals and some fermented foods.  However, once grain is added to an animal’s diet, the K2 vitamin is lost. You can read more about Vitamin k2 from Western Price’s article.

Tim and Amber know everything about their cattle. They use software called Agriwebb to keep records which means they can tell you which paddock their cattle have been in and when, as well as what mineral supplementation and homeopathic nosodes they have had access to. Yes the cattle use their own innate ability to choose which mineral licks on offer they need. They know they are managing their animals in a way that is in line with natural landscape function and honouring natural animal behaviour.

Paul and Nicole absolutely love where they live, nestled in the Noosa Hinterland, with their beautiful family. They have a deep respect for the land and the traditional custodians of Gubbi Gubbi country. Their farming style reflects the natural world.. the way mother earth loves it. They use organic, sustainable practices, utilising gravity fed water systems, solar energy, worm juice, free-range animal poo. Creating an environment that makes their indigenous fruit trees feel at home. They are organically certified by Southern Cross Certification.

Paul & Nicole were honoured to have Aunty Dale, an indigenous local woman and award-winning chef, cookbook author and public speaker, out to their home to cook one of her own recipes, Bush Lemon Aspen Tartlets.
