This is the second episode in a special series of The Producers. Agricultured 2023 celebrates the farmers and produce of northern Tasmania. In five conversations, we celebrate farmers caring for both land and community: a cattle farmer, cheesemaker, vegie growers and a winemaker. Along the way you’ll hear how strong local food systems and ethical farming do much more than create delicious food. They also benefit the farmers themselves, people who enjoy food at home and in restaurants and the earth that we all share.

Grass. Cow. You. That’s the approach at Ashgrove, where family-owned paddock to plate dairy delights are nurtured with full transparency and a sense of responsibility to land, animal and local Tasmanians.

This is the first episode in a special series of The Producers. Agricultured 2023 celebrates the farmers and produce of northern Tasmania. These stories come from Kanamaluka - the Tamar River - in Lutruwita. In five conversations, we celebrate farmers caring for both land and community: a cattle farmer, cheesemaker, vegie growers and a winemaker. Along the way you’ll hear how strong local food systems and ethical farming do much more than create delicious food. They also benefit the farmers themselves, people eating at home and in restaurants, and the earth as a whole.

From good dirt comes good beef. That’s the motto at Glen Torrie Pastures, where Pippa Mills grows Black Angus beef for the local market. The farm is a deliberately small family enterprise run with sustainability and accountability - to the land, customers, the next generations, the world we share - at front of mind.
