Our goal on our land is to live sustainably, re-wild the once bare landscape and create a thriving, bio-diverse garden that allows us to share the beauty of our cut flowers with our local community.
Meet Jera & Joey
Hello and welcome! We are Jera and Joey the duo behind Meadow & Wilder Farm.
In 2023 we embarked on new life adventure that brought us out to our rural property in the charming town of Bungendore, NSW.
Jera has a background in Environmental Health Science and Floristry. She has worked in the building, planning and health industries for over a decade and for the past 8 years as a qualified florist in the wedding and events industry. Jera brings her creativity and expert floral artistry to each bouquet and arrangement and a green thumb in cultivating and growing beautiful flowers in the garden.
Joey has a background in the mechanical industry and is a ‘Joe of all trades’, being across all things that break and need repair, plumbing, excavating, electrical, fabrication, concreting, carpentry, heavy machinery operation, official bouquet holder and of course his most favourite past time - hole digging!
Our Journey
Our story began with a shared desire to have more space and land where we could live more sustainably and build a business in which we can share the joy of gardening and flowers with others by supplying our community with fresh, seasonal, locally grown flowers.
Our farm is a reflection of our love for nature and a commitment to re-wild our land to create biodiversity habitats for our Australian native fauna.
Since acquiring our land, together we we have planted over 600 perennial trees, bushes, shrubs and flowers in an effort to re-wild the once vacant landscape.
We continue to grow our unique and interesting selection of perennials including flowering ornamentals, lush foliages, unique and textural branches, fruits and selected seasonal blooms to create vibrant, whimsical and gardensque bouquets and arrangements for our customers.
At Meadow & Wilder Farm we feel passionately about conserving the Environment from the soil to the sky.
Our Philosophy
At Meadow and Wilder Farm we feel passionately about conserving the environment from the soil up to the sky. Our goal on our land is to create a thriving and biodiverse garden that allows us to share the beauty of our flowers with our community.
We have a strong focus on growing, supplying and sourcing pesticide free, seasonal, locally grown, long lasting fresh flowers.
We are dedicated to following the natural rhythms and seasons of our region and the conditions of the land. We work with nature, not against it.
At Meadow & Wilder Farm our operations are sustainable. We take pride in supplying flowers that are not only beautiful, but also ethically and sustainably grown. Our operations are solar powered and we use collected rainwater for our crops, our fields are plastic free and most importantly safe from the use of harmful chemicals.
We are part of the, ‘Grown Not Flown’, network of Australian flower growers and are passionate about educating consumers on where their flowers come from and championing locally grown blooms.
We are part of a large network of flower growers in the Canberra and South East New South Wales which is home to an extensive network of micro-flower farms.
Through these important and valued friendships we are able to source and supply a wide variety of premium, fresh locally grown flowers, reducing flower miles and supporting our local economy.
