<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2112478/open_sms">Send us a text</a>G&apos;day and welcome to episode 72 of the A Place To Call Home PodcastToday I’m joined by Jacob (Jake) Wolki, a mixed-enterprise farmer from Woomargama in southern New South Wales. Jake and his wife Ann run a 60-hectare home block with Nguni cattle, Berkshire pigs, laying hens, honey, an orchard and a stack of little side enterprises – all feeding into their on-farm butchery and direct-to-consumer business.What started as a personal health crisis and a backyard veggie patch has evolved into a fully fledged, multi-layered farm business: regenerative, direct-to-consumer, value-adding, and fiercely family-centred. Jake is also known for creating one of Australia’s first 24/7 unstaffed butcher shops, his unapologetically honest social media, and his advocacy for “fit-for-purpose” African genetics like Nguni cattle and Damara sheep.Whether you’re dreaming of stacking enterprises, going direct-to-consumer, or just want your kids more involved in the day-to-day, this yarn is packed with hard-won lessons, uncomfortable truths and plenty of practical inspiration. In this episode we chat about<ul><li>How a health crisis pushed Jacob from the “stupid Australian diet” into growing food and building a regenerative farm business.</li><li>The journey from leasing his dad’s 100-acre block to creating a fully integrated farm, butchery and nationwide direct-to-consumer model.</li><li>Why he built one of Australia’s first 24/7 unstaffed butcher shops — and how it transformed the business.</li><li>The power of value-adding: turning trim, fat and “waste” into high-margin products like tallow, broth and skincare.</li><li>Why Jacob chooses African genetics like Nguni cattle and Damara sheep for fit-for-purpose, low-input, resilient farming.</li></ul>Resources Mentioned<ul><li><a href='https://www.penguin.com.au/books/how-to-win-friends-and-influence-people-9780091906818'>How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie - Penguin Books Australia</a></li><li><a href='https://www.booktopia.com.au/the-richest-man-in-babylon-george-s-clason/ebook/9789897786884.html?msclkid=3de25281f5e61036a4a93baf86acc429&amp;utm_source=bing&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_campaign=RQmedia_DSA_eBooks&amp;utm_term=ebook&amp;utm_content=eBooks'>The Richest Man in Babylon, eBook by George S.
