The property is being transformed by owners and residents Larry & Mike with 
a background in architecture and furniture making and a passion for nutritious food, animal husbandry and self sufficiency.

Farm House is a 1960s timber cottage that they have lovingly restored, 
and have designed and handcrafted every element, from bespoke joinery 
& furniture, to custom lighting and naturalistic landscaping.Wilderment is a sanctuary – a place to disconnect from the everyday 
and cultivate a deeper connection with nature and organically grown food. Expansive windows and outdoor terraces frame views towards the 
spectacular ridge line of Mount Donna Buang, towering Mountain Ash 
and ancient tree ferns. 

The property, and valley it sits within, is a refuge for dozens of wild birds, wombats and sugar gliders and transforms at night under a blanket of stars and the magic of moonlight.

Farm House also features a kitchen garden brimming with edible Australian natives, herbs, leafy greens and veggies for guests to enjoy and use in the chef’s kitchen. Guests are also treated to a selection of fresh farm produce and optional additional baskets featuring produce or products made from the farm and by other artisans within the Yarra Valley.

Nestled within a rainforest mountainside, our small but highly productive farm is built on a simple belief – that food, community, and the land deserve better.  

We grow a diverse range of chemical-free, nutrient-rich produce using regenerative and organic practices, including 
no-dig garden beds that work with the soil rather than against it. Flowers and plants woven throughout attract pollinators and support a thriving local ecology. 
Powered entirely by solar and battery energy, we're a net-zero operation — and a quiet rebellion
against outdated farming and consumption models that no longer serve people or the planet.

We are also in the process of establishing a heritage cider orchard and citrus grove for lemoncello production. 
Stay tuned for further progress and where to buy our locally crafted beverages made with mountain spring water.

WILD STORY


From humble beginnings, a shared dream, a lasting legacy.


Mike Sharp & Larraine Henning (Larry) both share a background in Architecture and a passion for design, horticulture, animals and delicious food.

Mike, originally from the Hunter Valley, traveled, studied and worked abroad as an Architect in Europe and the UK for nearly a decade until settling in Warburton in 2019. Initially studying furniture design and then becoming a cabinetmaker his fastidious eye for detail and timber craft is woven into all facet of his architectural practice.

Larry, Canadian born, studied and worked in Architecture in Canada & the Netherlands before shifting towards other creative pursuits in Australia. She worked as a Jillaroo, Industrial Designer, Craft Bar Owner and Graphic Designer across Eastern Australia and published her own illustrated book in 2014 ‘ A Practical Guide to Squatting’, a component of her architectural thesis project.

Larry met Mike & Rosie the dog, in the heart of the covid pandemic – a surreal time of transition and reflection – on what is essential and meaningful in this world. In the quiet firelit nights of Warburton winters they formulated their plan to develop their incredibly wild and beautiful mountainside property into a once-in-a-lifetime project.  A sanctuary, retreat and home that is the coalescence of hospitality, ecology, design, small-scale regenerative agriculture, all brought into focus through the lens of architecture.

They originally inhabited the property in a tent, warmed by a small fire, with a hand-built cedar hot tub and composting toilet. They then acquired the adjoining block with it’s abandoned and heavily dilapidated 1960s timber cottage, 
where they lived with no heat, hot water or cooking facilities. Slowly but surely they chipped away at the property, crafting farm buildings, fencing, managing invasive weeds with their goats, forging pathways and laying the foundations for Wilderment.

Each new comfort a luxury and constant reminder 
of an alternative way to live on this ancient landscape. 

With excitement we share with you our legacy

 – Wilderment – 

A values driven enterprise of love, creativity and beauty.
