Dining out - The Farm and Three Blue Ducks

Citizens of the world

It seems odd that we as a society now fetishise the quaint charm of rural farming. Sometimes we get a little Hameau de la Reine vibe (Marie Antoinette’s little rural town she built to ‘play’ farm peasant back in 1783) the way restaurants are incorporating herb gardens and live animals into their dining experiences (to almost staggering levels of success). Embracing the grit and the smell of livestock, it seems customers are loving getting their hands a little bit dirty when it comes to fine food.

Destination - The Farm Byron Bay

Get Forked and Fly

I just can’t wait any longer.

You see when the front gate at The Farm in Byron Bay swung open a little more than six months ago I decided to wait for the dust to settle on the car park, so to speak, before highlighting the newcomer on my blog. I thought I would wait until the initial convoy of curious locals, destination day-trippers and Byron beach holidaymakers who were descending on The Farm in droves had slowed down somewhat – and left me a parking space up front – before taking a closer look at the project.

The Australian

ASTRID McCormack often has a laugh about how taken aback people are when they arrive at her tiny restaurant, Fleet. Like Fleet, The Farm has redefined regional food tourism in this state, with hundreds of visitors arriving daily to spread out over the sprawling property, admiring the livestock on-site, in some cases picking the vegetables that spring from the ruddy earth here, and eating great food that pours forth from the kitchen like the tide.

Emma’s bliss down on The Farm

The Starfish

We’ve all visited the intersection of Overwhelmed Avenue and 
Stressed-Out Boulevard, and when I recently found myself at this hazardous crossing I began to plot my escape. But with scores of resort options available to one seeking refuge from the pressures of
Real Life, where to turn? A friend suggested I spend a few hours at a blissful haven called The Farm, in Byron Bay in far northern NSW.
