K2 Regenerative Farm is a small, family-run farm on Peramangk Country in the Adelaide Hills, South Australia. We believe there is a social and ecological imperative to produce food in a way that regenerates both the land and our connection to each other and the ecosystems that sustain us.
Hello, we are the Hughes family :-) current land stewards of 100ha of native scrub and pasture in Kanmantoo, SA.
We manage cattle by emulating natural grazing processes to support animal health and welfare, build soil, increase biodiversity and sequester carbon.
As well as regenerating pasture, we grow and care for a diverse range of trees and shrubs, managing approximately 33ha of heritage-protected native scrub which is home to hundreds of species of plants, birds and animals - many now endangered in the Adelaide Hills.
We began farming after learning that regenerative grazing in dry grassland ecosystems is one of the best ways to address environmental issues like desertification and climate change. We found it difficult to source meat that had been grown this way, so we started doing it for ourselves and our community.
We work with local butchers with traditional nose-to-tail skillsets to process our beef so that we can supply directly to customers in the Hills and Southern suburbs of Adelaide, South Australia.

K2 Farm is part of a growing network of regenerative farmers and land managers across the Adelaide Hills and Fleurieu Peninsula. We work with other local farms and businesses to support the decentralisation of farming and production systems in South Australia. We share knowledge, land and ecological health monitoring and collaborative distribution opportunities which further regeneration of the land we all manage and in the communities we are part of.
