Veronica and Grant Trethewey purchased their 30 acre property in Gingin, Western Australia in 1999 where they raised their three sons.
Over the years they planted Mango trees, and vineyards.
Nowadays, the farm boasts of 500 lime trees, and have established themselves as Australia’s first and only black lime farm.
The Trethewey family have been working hard at becoming self sustainable and now have a 19 kw solar system backed up by 4 (10 kw) batteries. In 2022 the farm became an off-grid property by disconnecting from the grid entirely. This means all the reticulation, producing and processing of Australia’s black limes has been achieved with renewable energy.
Their goal is to produce spray free, quality black limes for the Australian public. To find out more about their farm you can visit their website: Australian Black Limes
