Sadie Chrestman - Fat Pig Farm

Sadie Chrestman didn't get into gardening until she was 40, but she's quickly made up for lost time. Sadie moved from inner-city Sydney to the Huon Valley in Tasmania, settling on a property called Puggle Farm, where she got stuck into everything from animal husbandry, admiring wood piles, and deep soil knowledge.

Stepping it up a notch, Sadie, and her partner Matthew Evans, purchased a 70 acre property they named Fat Pig Farm, opening a market garden and setting up a restaurant. When one of their much loved Market Gardener moved on, Sadie put her hand up for the role, taking on 1km of garden beds for a weekly restaurant sitting - sometimes feeding up to 200 people per week, with produce almost entirely coming from the farm.

Fat Pig Farm have created a bush foods garden with Aunty Kris Schaffer, are doing gin collabs with Nat Fryar from Abel Gin, and are spreading the good word about the importance of soil.
