Our Story
We are a second generation family farm located in Wattleup, Western Australia, owned and operated by myself Paul Glavocich, my wife Crystal, and my two parents.
We started back in 1986 when my Dad (also named Paul) bought a small farming property. Back then, all that existed was bare land. My dad worked really hard over the next few years to turn this farming property into a Market Garden, preparing the ground and soil, and setting up all the infrastructure and sprinklers on his own.
Our Passion
We wanted to share the food that we grow and eat ourselves directly with our community, so we created our Farmer’s Choice Produce Boxes as a way to do this. We believe that healthy foods makes healthy people. Having local produce that was grown down the road by us and other local farms in the area is a fresher and more sustainable way to do your weekly veggie shopping.
