description: The entrancing story of one of the first Australian farming familys journey from the late 1700s until today. How mid-20th-century agriculture failed with the adoption of industrial agriculture and the use of high rates of fertiliser and pesticides which inflicted severe ecological damage on the farm and threatened to spiral the farm into financial ruin and how they rose from the ashes of a catastrophic bushfire and continue farming today.
