Farm Cove is found within Sydney itself, hiddenin plain site in the Royal Botanical Gardens. It takes its name from the shallow bay it overlooks. The largest and most diverse of Great Divide's septs, the Garou here are forced to keep a very strict grip on the Veil , not only to protect themselves from the powerful Camarilla vampires who rules the city. During the early history of Sydney there was open and bloody warfare between the two groups. In 2004, several factors brought the sept and the Camarilla into uneasy détente at least within the heart of Sydney with much rancor on both sides. The Treaty of Roses & Songs simply spreads the concept of Elysium within a one mile radius of the Circular Quay and Sydney Harbor which protects the Gardens, Opera House and Government Building along with other famous attractions. All member of Farm Cove are considered urrah and "weaver-tainted" by other protectorates. Here tribal lines tend to blur within camps so that its possible to encounter, for example, a Black Fury Fenian of Irish decent, and an Uktena Urban Primitive, a Bone Gnawer Scout , and a Fianna Corporate Wolf. This ecclectic factionalizing creates a strange "melting pot" effect that causes the Garou factions to be extremely territorial with each other: except in the face of the legion of advesaries that the sept as a whole has to contend with. Most vampires are unaware that the lupines den within Prince Simeon Lord's personal domain at the heart of Sydney. Likewise, most Garou know nothing about the culture and politics of the leeches, only that they are not actively hunted in the Gardens and surrounding area except by sept leadership.
Farm Cove is an open sept of mixed non-metis Glass Walkers and Children of Gaia some of whom form the City Farmer faction in Bandaiyan. The City Farmers of Farm Cove are zealous about keeping the Veil. They are viewed with suspicion by some other septs who wonder if in their question to make Sydney and other cities more self sustaining and "Green", they aren't optimistic to the point of ineptitude. The caern totem is Flying Fox, a Grey Bat spirit. Opposing factions sharing the caern include the Corporate Wolves and Dies Ultimae.
