A Taste of Paradise Farm A children's charity that uses the living things of a family farm to build trust and give young people hope for a better future.

A Taste of Paradise is a farm project located in a beautiful secluded valley near Berry, on the southeast coast of Australia, approximately one hour’s drive south of Wollongong. Tim and Andrea Francis, local couple, established the farm in 1999 as a mentoring and work experience project centred on catering for teenagers between 13 and 20 years of age. Since then the project has become a deductable gift recipient charity. The farm is run as a mixed organic farm comprising a fruit and nut tree orchard, a range of livestock (beef cattle, goats, horses, free range chickens, turkeys and alpacas), a conservation area, and the beginnings of a timber plantation. The project exists on a not-for-profit basis, without direct government funding, providing programmes that cater for each young person’s needs, short or long term. A Taste of Paradise Organic Farm Ltd works with a number of organisations given the responsibility of caring for young people.

We’re proud to partner with organisations that support young people who have little or no family support. Recently, we welcomed Caresouth and the Aboriginal Medical Service, two of our longest‑standing partners for Community Open Mornings here on the farm.

Over the past twenty‑six years, more than 450 young people from our region have taken part in our mentoring program. Through hands‑on experience in agriculture and horticulture, life‑skills development, and social‑skills support, we aim to inspire every young person to see a future full of possibility.

If you’d like to join us for a future Community Open Morning, please get in touch.
