Levenvale Farm is a certified organic farm located in Bellingen, on Gumbaynggirr land, under the stewardship of Sam and Georgina Baker since 2019. As passionate advocates for regenerative agriculture, animal welfare and human health, they have created space to reconnect the consumer to the farm and their food. They grow and produce their own range of organic & grass-fed beef products under the brand of Bello Beef and they land-share with The Patch Organics, who grow free-range, pastured chickens and a market garden. In addition to Bello Beef and their own off-farm butchery, they also have a farm shop, and host many community events, educational workshops, farm-stays, tours and venue hire. Building resilience in small scale agriculture and food production.
Their mission continues to be focused on the land “to farm in a more sustainable way, to leave the land in a better condition than we found it, to regenerate the environment through improved soil health and plant diversity.”
