Description
A Taste of Paradise Farm is a registered children's charity that supports children and young people between the ages of 5 and 20 to develop trust, build safe and reliable relationships with a mentor and learn processes and skills on a working family farm.
The charity was founded by Tim and Andrea Francis as a social enterprise in 1999 and became a registered donatable gift recipient charity in 2010. In the 21 years since, more than 400 young people, mostly in out of home care, have attended the farm in our day program working one-on-one with a mentor. Using the living things of the farm, the animals and plants, mentor's work with the young person, initially building trust. Once trust is established, and this can take different amounts of time depending on the truama and pain the young person has experienced, the mentor aims to build a positive, safe and reliable relationship with the young person.
Then we look at skill development. This can be anything from learning the processes of looking after our poultry, the cycle from egg to laying, collecting, cleaning and packaging eggs, to repairing fences, cutting feed for animals to repairing roads.
These skills are then transferable to the other parts of their lives. They take the success they achieve at the farm back to their homes, whatever that looks like - living with family, foster care, group homes, and their schools.
Their time at A Taste of Paradise Farm gives them hope for a future different to what they have known. A Taste of Paradise has a positive life-impacting change in the lives of at-risk and disadvantaged young people.
We are funded through a variety of means, direct funding, small government grants and by the generous donations of people who see the value in our work, and who want to help us change young lives.
