From farm shop to food legend In 1979, Maggie Beer, a household name in Australia and a food writer, and her husband Colin founded a farm shop in Barossa.

At that time, Maggie might not have thought that this small farm shop would become a shining star in the Australian food industry in the future. As word of mouth spread about handmade food, the farm shop gradually evolved into the famous Barossa Pheasant Farm restaurant.
