🚙4WD ARE A MUST DURING WET WEATHER. Our farm is only a minutes' drive from the township of Kinglake. Or a 20-minute easy walk to shops and cafes. We are close to all the Yarra Valley and Kinglake Ranges have to offer from wineries to the National Parks for hiking, biking and 4WD driving. Fowkes family farm is a small, hobby, flower farm. Made up of 15 acres of working land and 35 acres of bush land. We have a 2-acre orchard with seasonal fruit available to be picked. ( Dec - April) The farm has over 100 king protea bushes and many other varieties of protea. Seasonal pick your own flowers too. ( Aug - March) Backing onto the national park and walking tracks. Jehoshaphat Gully, Shelley Harris Track, Mt Jerusalem Track. Walking distance to Kinglake historic walk, Cookson Hill Track, Mt Everard Track, Bollygum Park. Visit Mason Falls Waterfall, 12-minute drive to Kinglake West. We have 2 dogs, 5 pet sheep and 4 lambs, 1 blue tongue lizard The farming area is completely fenced in, this is to keep the deer out, but you can venture out onto the property bush land with the correct map and navigation equipment. Eagles, cockatoos, black cockatoos, kookaburras, magpies, rosellas, king parrots, Gang-gang cockatoo, honey eaters can be spotted most days and lyrebirds if you’re keen to go looking. Small playground with swings, slide, monkey bars and sandpit. Taxi service - The Graceful-Goat to get you around to the local eats and wineries. The Kinglake market is on the 4th Sunday of each month 10-2pm except December which is the Sunday before Christmas - twilight 2-7pm No market in January.

Excellent stay
We had a great time at Tamara's place. The spot isn't too far from the main house and toilet. But far enough that you have privacy and feel like you're on your own. Great views and not too far from town / things to do. We hand picked flowers to bring home with us which was a really nice experience, it was great hearing about the farm and the different types of flowers that Tamara has. We will be back in the future for sure.

Beautifully peaceful
Tamara’s flower farm is so beautiful and peaceful! She is also very accommodating and helpful. The dogs loved it and bad the best time running free on the farm. Will definitely be back! Thanks again 💚

Magical little slice of heaven
Tamara's farm was so incredibly lovely, accommodating, and welcoming! Not only was it scenically beautiful, quietly private and cosy, but there was plenty of firewood, and the company of such adorable silly sheepy friends made it extra special <3 the addition of being able to take home a gorgeous protea bouquet made it feel like we were able to take some of our magical stay home with us too. My friend and I feel blessed to have stayed here, and look forward to hopefully visiting again in the future <3 Thank you for sharing your special connection with nature, with us 💖

camping in amongst containers next to busy road ways is not the most ideal. but it is close to town snd very handy, more of a gardens view on a flater grassed area would be amazing
