Shout out to Glen and Nicole from West High Street Boutique Butchery 🙌

Today they’re breaking our birds down into beautiful cuts for our customers, and we couldn’t be happier to be working with people who genuinely care about quality and local food.

They stock top-quality Australian meats, make sensational nitrate-free Australian bacon in-house, and carry organic beef as well.

If you’re in Coffs, go and support a local business that supports local farmers.
📍 West High Street Boutique Butchery
85 W High St, Coffs Harbour NSW 2450.

Get your hands on our pasture raised birds this weekend at the Saturday Woopi markets and Sunday Harbourside Markets.

Good people, good food, done properly. 🥩🐓

Part of our farm dream has always been to raise animals ethically — with care, respect, and without the nasties. To feed our own little family and our local community food that tastes great and is produced the right way.

So we’re excited to introduce our newest range: Organic Fed, Pasture Raised Chickens 🐓.

Our chickens are raised the traditional way, spending their days outdoors doing what chickens are meant to do — foraging, scratching for bugs, breathing fresh air, and living on pasture 24/7.

• No chemicals, antibiotics, or sheds
• Moved daily onto fresh pasture
• Fed Australian-made organic feed

This way of farming takes more time and costs more, but we don’t cut corners. That extra care shows in the flavour, the texture, and the peace of mind knowing your food was raised well.

Some wise words worth considering....

"Supporting small businesses, especially during challenging economic times, is crucial for their survival and the health of the community. When you support a small business, you're not just making a purchase; you're investing in the local economy, fostering job growth, and nurturing a sense of community. Every action, from leaving a positive review to referring a friend, can make a difference"

Thanks for always supporting our family business - 99 On Park.

We have been busy behind the scenes!!

Meet KYEL, who will kindly share his mushroom 🍄‍🟫 journey with you at our Fabulous French Long Lunch on the Côte d’Coffs!

Kyel began growing mushrooms in 2023.

You might have seen his stall The Farmers Crate at the Harbourside Markets in Coffs Harbour?

Kyel also supplies his artisan mushrooms to local restaurants.
And you will taste his produce in the Beef Bourguignon at our Long Lunch!



“Once I wrapped my head around the mycology, I was hooked,” said Kyel.

“It felt like a natural extension of my goal to reconnect people with where their food comes from.”

Find out Kyel’s favourite mushroom - maybe one you have never heard of - and what to look for when you are buying fresh.

Our 3rd and final speaker reveal is this weekend… who will it be?

Only a handful of tickets left - bookings essential for catering.

What an incredible night at King Tide Brewing! They put on a stunning 5-course dinner, and Jake and Bobby absolutely nailed it in the kitchen. They turned our Lions Mane into one of the best dishes I’ve ever had — truly next level.

We also had the chance to tour the brewery with Josh. His passion and knowledge for brewing really shines through, and it’s no wonder their beer is unmatched in both quality and taste.

Massive thanks to the whole team for such a memorable experience.

It's hard to see progress when your in it, so it's pretty heart warming to see how much the fruiting room has grown in just 4 months. It's been alot of hard work but I couldn't have grown this much if it wasnt for the restaurants that have been with us from day 1 and the people that come visit us at the markets every week From my family to yours, thank you all for the continued support!!
