We are currently rehabilitating small areas on our farm that have been taken over by Camphor Laurel, a weed that is prevalent in Byron Bay. Like many other areas in Australia, farming in Byron Bay has declined over a number of years. Removing Camphor Laurel takes time and the family is sympathetically rehabilitating small areas of the farm back to its prior agricultural productivity again. Native Botanicals as well as more traditional European and Asian botanicals such as juniper, lemon grass, kaffir lime leaves, mint, sage, rosemary, coriander seeds, cinnamon, iris and peppercorns, are being planted. The productivity and sustainability of the agricultural enterprise is being enhanced and is now closely linked to the Lord Byron Distillery delivering a uniquely Byron paddock to bottle drink.
