Heritage Pigs, Sheep, Cattle and Poultry. Glenlyon Dam Frontage for fishing and boating. Rolling Traprock Hills. Organic Vege Garden. Historic Cottage. I have Rare Breed Sheep, cattle, pigs, goats and Poultry and am located on the edge of the Glenlyon Dam, 67 km South West of Stanthorpe on the Darling Downs in Queensland.
It is a true “Old MacDonalds” Farm with Shorthorn Beef Cattle, Babydoll Southdown, original Southdown Sheep, Large Black Pigs, an assortment of Poultry including Chooks (Australorp Bantam, Modern Game and Faverolle)
The farm is situated one the edge of the Glenlyon Dam. The Country is gentle rolling Traprock Country with plenty of timbered sheltered areas. This country is ideal for Rare Breed Sheep and my Wessex Saddleback Pigs thrive and live the ideal life always having shade in summer and shelter in the winter. Pastures are mostly natural Blue Grass with clover coming through in the winter.
The property hosts rare breeds of sheep with Shropshire being the main breed.
The property named “Tilba Tilba”(place of many waters) is also home to a large number of bird species and also Black Swans and waterflowl, the odd pelican. Pikes creek feeds onto Glenlyon Dam from the property. Fallow and other Deer, Wallabies, Kangaroos, possum and echidnas are often seen.

Why I became a WWOOF Host
I became a wwoof host to share my passion of rare breed livestock farming with others, to teach people about farming and the different breeds of livestock as well as self sufficiency and to get a bit of help around the farm as a bonus.
