OUR STORY

Welcome to TERRA MADRE, where our story is rooted in family, love, tradition, and a deep respect for Mother Earth.

Purpose finds us

Nicole, the founder of TERRA MADRE, has always dreamed of owning her own farm and harvesting her own crops. This vision was nurtured by the unwavering support of her parents, their dedication to wholesome meals, and the love and laughter that come from sharing delicious food rich with flavours and aromas. When Nicole found the perfect piece of land in Elgin, it felt like a calling, and the Elgin Valley became the backdrop for the realisation of her dream.

Our Beginnings

Terra Madre is a passion-driven family farm rooted in a deep love for food and a dream to bring the purest and most delicious products from our farm to your table. Inspired by the bond and love we share with each other, TERRA MADRE started a journey that celebrates family, Mother Earth and wholesome, pure goodness.

Our Journey: From our Farm to your Table

Initially, we focused on farming apples, organic vegetables, and olives. Our passion for creating something truly unique led us to install a hydraulic press and launch our cold-press apple and pear juices, which quickly gained popularity. To meet the growing demand, we scaled our business and expanded into gourmet seasonings, inspired by our rich culinary heritage and family recipes. This marked the beginning of a new chapter for TERRA MADRE.

Our Values: Love, Integrity, and Sustainability

At Terra Madre, everything we do is a testament to our commitment to quality, integrity, and sustainability. We believe in celebrating life, love, and family through cooking and shared meals. Our products are handcrafted with love and care, using artisanal methods and high-quality, natural ingredients. For us, meals are not just sustenance but feasts for the senses – experiences best shared with loved ones.

Farm Fresh Goodness

We are proud to offer products that embody the purity, quality, and artisanal spirit of our family farm. Each item in our range is created with love and care, reflecting our dedication to natural, wholesome ingredients and traditional methods.

Fresh from the orchard

Our single-varietal apple and pear juices are created using the most natural extraction method. Being in the heart of apple land, we wanted to bring a delicious, healthy juice to market with no added sugar or preservatives. Our juices are raw, unfiltered, and unpasteurised, maintaining the integrity of the nutrients and capturing the pure, fresh taste of the fruit.

Flavours of the world

Our seasonings are more than just spices; they are a celebration of the joy of cooking, sharing, and the generosity of flavour. Developed to bring maximum flavour to your cooking and enrich your meal, our seasonings incorporate authentic elements of global cuisines.

Caring for our land and our people

We are not just farmers but custodians of the land. We focus on sustainability, farming with integrity, and using recyclable PET plastic for our juices and reusable packaging for our seasonings. Our facility operates with a solar system, allowing us to be largely off-grid during summer. We are committed to the upliftment and growth of our team and actively support local charity organizations.

Traditions we treasure

Our Greek heritage and family traditions are at the heart of TERRA MADRE. Nicole’s parents, Chris and Koula, have been integral to the business, contributing to the brand’s values and success. They have always been a tight-knit family and have worked together for over two decades. It was Chris’s famous lamb seasoning that he developed over 50 years ago that sparked the inspiration to develop a complete range of seasonings, bringing the world’s flavours into your kitchens.

Join us, Nicole, Chris, and Koula Precoudis, and experience the pure, simple, wholesome goodness of TERRA MADRE.

From our farm to your home, we bring the best of nature, crafted with love and care.
