Welcome to Messines Farm

...or as we like to call it our Messy Farm!

Messines Farm is a family-owned regenerative agriculture property operating with the support of the team at Natura Pacific, a Social Enterprise providing specialist environmental education and consulting services. Our farm is located in Amiens, Queensland, where we are dedicated to growing fresh, nutritious produce while also restoring biodiversity. Our farm is a place where sustainability, community, and quality intersect, and we are thrilled to share it with you.

We believe in the power of regenerative agriculture, a holistic approach to farming that works with nature rather than against it. By using natural farming techniques such as crop rotation, cover cropping, and natural fertilizers, we aim to create a self-sustaining ecosystem that nourishes the soil, the plants, and the people who consume our produce.

Our farm is home to a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, including apples, pears, apricots, plums, berries, and leafy greens. We carefully select each crop based on its ability to thrive in our unique climate and soil conditions, and we take pride in offering produce that is bursting with flavour and nutrition.

We are committed to fostering a sense of community around our farm, and we welcome visitors to come and see our orchard in action. Whether you're looking for fresh produce to take home, or want to learn more about our farming practices, we invite you to come and experience the beauty and bounty of our regenerative farm.

The Messy Store

We offer you the freshest seasonal produce on the market - no more bland, tasteless, week or month-old supermarket harvest.

Our small-batch organic meat offering brings together superior taste, sustainable practices, and uncompromising quality. This is a true testament to our commitment to providing the finest culinary experiences while promoting responsible agriculture.

The fruit from here is the best I have had since I was a kid in the UK, and it was homegrown and picked straight from the plant. We purchased Gala apples and they are everything you’d want a Gala to be; so full of sweet flavour with a tart edge, crisp and juicy. And the amber honey is out of this world delicious! Thank you for the love you so obviously give your plants so we can enjoy this amazing produce.
