About Fiona Gregory
- Regenerative and organic farmer/grower
- Self-sufficiency focussed
- Passionate about nutrition and building healthy food systems
Growing healthy food begins with soil health, most soils are deficient in the key ingredients to sustain life: minerals, microbes and mulch. Plants grown in living soil produce more, are less susceptible to pests, are more resilient to weather stress and the end product is far more nutrient dense whether that be for you and your family to eat or for livestock.

About me
Fiona is a passionate regenerative and organic farmer/grower living on 50 acres on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast; with a focus on self-sufficiency. Holding dual qualifications in human nutrition and nutrition farming (soil and plant health), her focus is on providing the building blocks for healthy food systems through nutrition rather than costly and often damaging chemical inputs.
We began with following regenerative practices with our cattle, but the task of growing fruit and vegetables and improving pasture on depleted, almost lifeless soil was a far greater challenge. After just 12 months of establishing our food gardens we were very close to being self-sufficient, and now have surplus to share, preserve and to feed our cattle, chickens and llamas.
How did we do this?
- Composting
- Fermenting teas and extracts
- Inoculating with beneficial microbes
- Re-mineralizing
- Crop rotation
- Natural Pest Management
