About Duck Foot Farm

At Duck Foot Farm, it is our mission to demonstrate the possibilities of small scale farming and promote mutually beneficial land share arrangements between young farmers and land owners. It is our belief that small scale farming has a big role to play in the future food system, utilising better land management practices, improving the health of our environment and ultimately, the health of our people. Duck Foot Farm uses No Till Regenerative farming methods to provide the highest quality produce whilst building the health of our most vital resource... Soil!

Meet The Farmer

Justin Hartley moved to the southern Highlands in 2001 from Kiama. He has owned and run his own landscaping business and managed Moonacres Farm for over three years. Justin has taken a keen interest in the environmental issues we face today and believes small scale farms play a huge role in improving our way of life. With soil health as a priority, Justin wants to see many small scale farms introduced into local communities.
