Regenerative Farming and the Life Around Westport | Episode 2.3

What can a farm teach us about community? In this episode of Watercolour Westport Stories, Matt from Stealing the Bloom shares the story behind his regenerative farm just minutes from Watercolour. The farm is home to sheep, cattle, chickens, peacocks, a miniature donkey, and Marmalade, the podcast’s first animal guest. From farm tours and mobile petting zoos to deeper reflections on stewardship, sustainability, and living close to the land, this conversation explores how farming can become more than production. It can become a way of building relationships with animals, neighbours, food, and place.
