THE PRODIGAL FARMER
Learn. Grow. Live. Repeat.
Welcome To The Garden!
Meet The Prodigal Farmer
It started with a conversation over a fruit tray with imported fruits from abroad when Andrew was first inspired to discover that we can do something about this.
That’s where the dream began. A dream that is slowly becoming a reality. A reality that for everyone, means eating fresh food that is sourced locally for a better flavour.
Gardening Adventurer.
Teaching Enthusiast.

The Prodigal Farmer’s (TPF) goal is to build food reliance less on the mere convenience of globally shipped produce and more on having the freshest local produce grown in season and made conveniently available to local communities
Knowing where our food comes from and how it is grown is of the utmost importance to me, and it is what fuels my passion in not only providing produce to others, but also teaching others how they can from their own food in whatever space they have.
