We discovered our home in Porterville in 2013. While walking around we discovered the troughs used to feed the oxen and horses when the building was used in its original form... the stable. Yes, that is how we thought of the name which we have regretted ever since. (We always wonder who reads this far... 😉). Dean got his restoration hat on and began building around this Heritage listed building until we had the the beautiful cottage we have today.
Our own home is on the same property which has seen a few things change during lockdown in 2020. There is an organic vegetable garden, a small orchard of fruit trees and a chicken coop where we get loads of lovely organic eggs. We started the local Porterville Farmer's Market and still run that every Saturday... Opening again in 2021.
