Welcome
Leap Farm is a 108 ha property that was established by Iain and Kate Field in July 2012. They farm Swiss Toggenburg dairy goats and produce Tongola Cheese on farm, in addition to beef and goat meat and Leapful Skin Care products.
In 2021, Leap Farm became a climate positive farm. After offsetting their own emissions, the farm offsets the carbon emissions of 60 average Australian households each year through the sequestration of atmospheric carbon in the soil.
Their mission is to produce the highest quality food and improve the ecology of the landscape while ensuring the best health and happiness of their animals.
Kate started manufacturing Leapful Skin care products in late 2021. In 2025, the Face Cream and Phoenix Hill were awarded a Gold and Silver in the Clean + Conscious Awards, as well as being awarded the “Editor’s Choice” in the Beauty Shortlist Awards. Head to the shop to purchase luxurious, affordable, sustainable skin care.
Kate was one of three finalists in the 2022 AgriFutures Rural Woman of the Year Award, for the development of Leapful, a skincare range that uses the lactic whey, a by-product of cheese making, as the foundation of the products. Developing a beautiful and functional product from what is otherwise waste that needs to be managed, is another example of Iain and Kate’s innovative approach to farming with environmental stewardship at the heart of what they do. For more information about Leapful, or to place an order, head to the website here.
In 2019, Leap Farm was awarded the Sprout Small Producer of the Year - as voted by other small producers and customers. In February 2020, Leap Farm was short-listed in The Weekly Times Farmer of the Year Award in the Innovation Category.
