Richard and
Anne-Maree Tweedy: the farmers behind Hellfire, North Star NSW
Richard and Anne-Maree Tweedy operate their family farm at North Star, NSW, in the heart of the Golden Triangle. Their farm grows the Hellfire wheat behind Provenance Single Origin Hellfire Flour, with every bag traceable back to the Tweedy farm.
For Richard, farming is about more than growing crops: it is about stewarding the land for future generations through regenerative practices that build soil health naturally. His approach combines traditional farming wisdom with innovative techniques in seed selection and wheat variety development, carefully choosing varieties that thrive in the Tweedy farm's specific soil conditions.

By practicing regenerative agriculture, Richard and Anne-Maree care for their earth, environment and community, producing healthy grains from the nutrients and minerals maintained in their soil. Hellfire's very high protein (13.5% to 14.0%) is the culmination of five to seven years of strategic crop management before each wheat crop: nitrogen-fixing rotations, complementary plantings and timed rest periods that build the robust soil biology behind the flour's exceptional strength.
For the Tweedys, quality is about the integrity of every decision, from soil management to harvest. Their dedication ensures each harvest not only meets today's standards but contributes to the long-term health of their land.
