ABOUT WOLKI FARM

Albury Wodonga is a food bowl brimming with wholesome produce that will have your dinner guests chomping at the proverbial plate for more.

So why do we purchase inferior quality produce from the big guys?

Because we think we’re getting better value. But folks, value is subjective. When you see value through a fiscal lens, you’re missing other values — your health, animal welfare, environmental impact, and community.

When you buy local, you’re supporting more than just a farmer — you’re building a community. Here at Wolki Farm, we’re paving a healthier way forward for our community and generations to come — and we’d love for you to join us.

At Wolki Farm, we're actively pushing the limits on the definition of animal welfare. To us, 'high welfare' should mean more than just not being cruel; basic animal respect should mean that it doesn't get caged, kicked, prodded, or starved.

We believe animal welfare should be contextual to the animal's nature and environment. Contextual welfare means treating different species of animals appropriately, allowing them to mimic their behaviour in the wild. It's important to us — for both animal welfare and environmental impact.

We believe that death is as natural as birth, and we honour and respect both on our farm. We spend our days as the animals' co-labourers, doing our best to ensure that they have only 'one bad day'. In death, we encourage consumers to appreciate the animal's sacrifice by eating nose-to-tail — eliminating waste and increasing nutritional input.

We all know that food fuels. Some understand that good food nourishes. At Wolki Farm, we believe food can heal and maintain excellent health.

We're talking about REAL food — authentic food raised with respect and in line with nature's principles. No feeding herbivores grains, cruel confinement, abuse, nasty chemicals, growth promoters, antibiotics, synthetic nitrites, glyphosate, OR JUNK!

If food can bring you health, is it fair to conclude that it will not only bring a better quality of life, but will save on doctor's visits and medications?

We think it is, because it has in our family. And given we have local GPs sending patients to us to source pasture raised proteins for their health journey, it's fair to say that medical professionals are also witnessing the healing benefits.

To be referred to in this respect is an honour and a privilege and something that we take very seriously at Wolki Farm.

The last thing we consider when pricing a product is profit. Now, that may sound backwards... surely, being a 'for profit' enterprise, pricing for profit would be the first thing we'd do, yeah? Wrong.

At Wolki Farm, we first address animal welfare, environmental impact, quality production, and community involvement. Then, after we've accounted for these costs, we add our profit margin. Here's why: if we strive to become hyper-competitive with the commodity market, we'd be compromising one or more of our other values.

We price for profit so that our family can live comfortably while expanding our operation. We're not playing it small; a bigger Wolki Farm means more animals out of jail slavery and onto pastures as nature intended. It means more community members accessing quality produce.

We can't do it alone; we know our world (literally) becomes a better place with every farmer who accesses a profitable pathway to adopting regenerative farming methods. We're honoured to pave the way.
