Biofertiliser Making Workshop with David Hardwick
Biofertilisers are fertilisers that have gone biological process and contain microbes that can enhance plant resilience and production. Many biofertilisers can be made on farm with equipment you likely already have. Bio-ferts can result in significant cost savings and improved plant health. Leading farmers are using bio-fertilisers and seeing significant crop health boosts. This health has meant they have been able to start dropping out insecticides and fungicides. However bioferts have to be made right to ensure they work. We are very lucky to have Australia's leading teacher of Bio-Ferts David Hardwick to teach us.

Join us for an afternoon of fabulous live music, delicious food, family friendly activities and entry into the Tulip Farm.
Yirrmal + Band An enigmatic and captivating performer, Yirrmal’s storytelling transcends time and space. Richness and intimacy weaves through the fullness of contemporary rhythm and blues, bathed in soul, traditional Yolngu Matha, pop and Caribbean roots influences. He is a Yolngu songman from the North East Arnhem Land community of Yirrkala. He has featured on ARIA award-winning albums and has collaborated with the likes of Baker Boy and Dami Im. He cites the late Archie Roach as one of his mentors. His music bridges two worlds and seeks to connect First Nations cultures to mainstream Australian audiences as a means to reconciliation with a focus on connection to people and country.

Off the back of sell-out success in 2020, Table Cape Tulip Farm and Big hART bring you the next evolution of this unique event - weaving music, ecology and community together and celebrating our unique North West coast.
We live in an area with some of the cleanest rainfall in the world - so how does this affect the things we grow, the relationships we cultivate, our connection to place?
This year's program is inspired by our many and varied relationships to water.
Jay Jarome, Sabine Bester and the When Water Falls ensemble will be performing a suite of soul and funk infused music, written in collaboration with young people from across the coast, and inspired by these questions.
'When Water Falls' was presented in June in Sheffield to a packed-out crowd, and we're thrilled to be bringing the work to the beautiful landscape of Table Cape.
Alluvium - a collaboration between Aaron Hopper and Paul Corfiatis - have been working on an album inspired by rivers, and will be performing songs from the new album.
Tunes in the Tulips 2021 will also feature inspiring talks from innovative Tasmanian scientists, as well as delicious local produce from Red Cow Organics.

Table Cape Tulip Farm welcomes back the Red Dirt Bush Dance.
After a ripper sold out evening of dancing and fun last year, heel and toe back to the farm shearing shed for a night of bush dance tunes from The Bottom Pub Ceilidh Band. Dances are "called" so no bushdance experience necessary. Country style supper served later on. This year's band and caller are an experienced wealth of good times, and we're confident this is going to be our absolute best year yet.
Heavy boots on boards, loud laughter, beer bottles clinking, and the tuning of strings. It’s old school fun meets hipster cool at the Red Dirt Bush Dance.
Dress: country casual, bring your dancing shoes and absolutely no heels (it is a shearing shed with a slatted floor). Licensed Bar on Site: 18+ event (NO BYO).
Over the last few years our sheering shed has took on a new look when national arts organisation BighART told it’s story through a dynamic Ten Days on the Island show called The Acoustic Life of Sheds. Our little sheering shed became an unreal creative space with over a thousand peole coming to see, musicians Lucky Oceans and Konrad Park and other over the last two Ten Days on the island events.
Now we have used the space for some great events including, Photography workshops, pop up playgroups, Christmas partys and our annual Bush Dance.
Picture a shed, a simple rural farm shed, fire drums burning away outside and a sky full of stars above your head. Inside it’s decked out with a load of fairy lights and hessian sacks, bales of hay, sweet bush dance tunes, then there is supper…did we mention we’re putting on a little supper for you guys.
This is the chance to get back your rural roots, let your hair down, get out the country clothes and boots and embrace your inner farmer.
