Meet Sam, Tim and Teagan from Cultivate Farms.
Tim and Tegan Hicks are aspiring farmers; raising 50 head of cattle on agisted land around their district. Together Tim and Tegan have started Hicks Country Beef, which is a 100% grass fed beef business where they sell direct to customers in the Albury area.
They always wanted to own their own farm but as they did not inherit Tim’s family farm, they knew it would be almost impossible for them to buy their own. Sam Marwood who grew up on a dairy farm in Central Victoria and has spent 12 years working in environmental policy for the Victorian Government, together they have created a platform for Investors and Aspiring Farmers across Australia, this lead the pathway for the birth of Cultivate Farms.
