We're the people that grow
and make your food

Acting Chair

Katt is co-owner of Tamar Valley Pastured and has been a producer and board member since June 2020.

After a career in Administration and Strata Management, Katt and her family relocated to Tasmania in October 2017 to start a pastured egg farm. Now a successful farm business, Katt hopes to share her knowledge and experience to help other small-scale farmers who have a focus on ethics and sustainability to build their businesses. Small-scale farming is not always easy and Katt aims to ensure there is support for those starting out who might not have access to farmers markets and other customer channels. 

Katt believes small-scale farming is the key to building resilient, connected communities, as well as reducing our impact on the environment and increasing food security. Through her work with the TPC, Katt aims to help build a landscape where these farmers can thrive.
