About Us

Andrew lives on the farm with his partner Julie.

He lives, breaths and sleeps Australian Native Wildflowers and is passionate about what he does.

Formerly a chartered accountant, Andrew worked for many years in domestic and commercial construction before finally discovering his true calling in life.

At any one time the farm can have up to 3 additional workers assisting.

We propagate many of our own plants and also collaborate with a great network of nurseries to supply the farm with plants each year.

We strive to work with nature not against it. We do this in the following ways:

• Many sections of the property remain native bush.

• We strive to use only organic fertilizers.

• Except for the eucalypts, no pesticides are used. Those pesticides used are mainly organic.

• Near zero herbicides are used.

• After the initial planting, we have a no-till policy of soil management.

• We continually mulch our plants.

• We are off-grid and generate all our power with solar panels.

Formerly a goat farm, the property was leased out to a local flower-farming family in the 80’s until their leased finished in 2010.

The absence of any active farm management combined with the 2014 bushfires left the property in a very run down state by the time Andrew purchased it in early 2019. 

That’s when Andrew’s journey began improving the farm step by step.

The Jonas clan is a proud third-generation flower farming family with Andrew’s grampa (Arthur) and father (Tim) being Rose Farmers in Warrandyte, Victoria back in the 1950’s.

Andrew has been visiting the Grampians from a young age camping, climbing and hiking with his friends and family.
