Living the dream: Olive Gap is a flower and tea tree farm run on organic principles by two siblings and their families.

At Olive Gap organic farm we produce certified organic cut flowers and tea tree oil on 44 hectares. We also have a small herd of cattle. The farm is managed by two families: Tara, myself and our three children, Olive, April and Cedar; and my sister Tess and her partner Nina. Although we all pitch in to help at different times of the year, Tess and Nina do most of the work on the tea tree and Tara works on flower production. I seem to be the odd job guy around the place and also work part time teaching.
