Regenerative farm at 216 Yarramalong Rd, Wyong Creek run by first-generation farmers (Tim & Hannah); primary business is grass-fed/pasture-raised meat and egg boxes sold via an honesty-system farm shop. Separately, they open a sunflower field to the public once a year (spring-summer) for genuine pick-your-own at $1/stem via honesty box, no pre-booking required -- corroborated by the farm's own site, Coasties Magazine, and the Love Central Coast regional tourism site (which lists a differing contact number, 0433 426 708, for the PYO listing specifically). Facebook page is active (8.4K followers, posted within the last 2 days) confirming the business is currently operating, though exact current-season sunflower dates were not published at time of verification. Not a duplicate of any farm in the existing Central Coast list -- distinct name and address.
