A big shout-out to our fantastic packing crew this avo season. They do an awesome job!! Thanks to: Antonin, Dylan, Emma, Hara, Lauren, Maria, Noemi. Its been a real pleasure working with them.
Our new dam was built late 2017. After some fantastic rain its now full & ready for irrigation….not that we need to at the moment!!
Our very first pick of new avocado variety Maluma Hass. The fruit is generally larger, more creamy, with a smaller stone & a rougher skin than the original Hass. The skin still changes from green to purply-black when ripe. Try them if you get the chance!
How’s this for a great new service on the Tablelands………Cassowary Coast business Ritchie Plastics will come to your farm to collect used chemical drums & fertiliser bags for recycling!!
