About your host, Rita
I am from a business back ground but I always wanted to be farming. I have been farming this 230acre drystock farm, on my own now, since 2012. Even though it is challenging I prefer it to the full time office work I undertook in my previous business. I like to farm with as little inputs (chemicals & fertiliser) as possible so I run low numbers on big land which is better for the land, the animals, myself and the bush and waterways. The cabins provide the income to allow me to go easy on the land by having the low numbers of livestock. I love sharing my little piece of paradise with others & believe everyone needs to get away for Rest & Restoration (R&R) from time to time. I hope to see you here at Riverside R&R soon.
