Emma was born and raised in England. After 12 years of corporate life in London, she fled the urban jungle for the wide, open spaces of Australia. What followed was a year long sabbatical exploring our sunburnt country. During this time Emma fell under the magical spell of Australia. She secured a marketing job in Sydney and the rest, they say, is history. She met Tom and they traded their big-city lives in fast-paced jobs to establish The Farm at Byron Bay, to create a different life for themselves and their four children, where they could understand where their food comes from, develop a love of the land and feel a real sense of community.
