Fleurtys is a farm and café at Birchs Bay, on southern Tasmania's D'Entrecteaux Channel. Birchs Bay is a 50-minute (50 kilometre) drive south of Hobart, a short drive from Woodbridge.
Fleurtys farm produces a significant proportion of Australia's native pepper crop, which is grown, dried and packaged at the farm and sold under the Diemen Pepper label. Products include packaged berries and leaf, zesty oils and vinegars and spicy chutneys. The farm also grows Dutch iris for the mainland market, and operates an essential oil distillery.
Fleurtys café is contained within an elegantly designed modern building, with views of the farm and surrounding forest. You can choose from the menu of fresh local produce, or enjoy a picnic pack with freshly baked savoury pastries, local wine and delicious cakes. After lunch, take a stroll around the farm or through the surrounding bush, or visit the farm shop to browse the selection of local products. Choose from the range of Diemen Pepper products or Tasmanian Essential Oils, Tasmanian wines and beers, Hill Farm preserves, Fudge A'Fare, Bruny Iand cheeses and Gillespie's Ginger Beer.
Fleurtys is named after convict sawyer Charles Fleurty, who lived in the area in the 1820s.
