pennyroyal raspberry farm
17 years ago, Mike and Katrine decided to swap their busy Melbourne lifestyle for the picturesque hills of Pennyroyal. One of their favourite weekend haunts was the Pennyroyal Raspberry Farm, and over time their visits evolved into regularly helping the owners around the farm. Little did they know, a casual comment expressing their interest in buying the property when the owners retired would be a turning point. Several weeks later they were the proud owners of the Pennyroyal Raspberry Farm, and since then they have been living the life they had always dreamed of.
Utilising Mike’s background as an environmental consultant and Katrine’s experience in the food industry, the couple has expanded the business significantly, diversifying the range of products offered, increasing the focus on organic farming techniques and incorporating complementary local ingredients into their products.
