@@wineforthepeople You basically make a giant tea with the Casuarina needle and then dilute it in a bunch of water....and spray! Phillip Jones from Bass Phillip wines uses this technique so he can be biodynamic. Great natural mildew defence!
Not too sure as of yet - we live on-site, although the market garden will supply WAY more than we could possibly use ourselves - we'd definitely use a bunch for cellar door produce, and farmgate sales - but mostly, we want families to visit us and see what food looks like when it grows in the ground...there's not many places in South Australia, that are readily accessible where you can do that. We think it's important - if we don't sell any of the produce, it kinda doesn't bother us. Maybe give it to neighbours? Trade for wine?
One of my favorite videos you have done. Love seeing your dreams coming true. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much! Much more to come!
Bring on the soil talk
Love it when you talk dirty to me.
In the 80s Lyndall grew proteas on that patch!
Oh REALLY!? That puts my mind at ease - at least we know we CAN grow something there!
Looking forward to seeing the progress.
There's plenty to come!
Love the farm content
Thank you!!!
Great looking property! Th Casuarina trees will come in handy if you ever have fungal problems!
I also reckon it would be cool to reuse bits of the cut down pine tree in your new cellar door!
Oh really?! How so?!
That's a GREAT point! You're giving us ideas already!

OMG - I've just come out of a deep rabbit hole on this! Thank you so much! We had NO idea!
Fiano ftw!
Hell yeah!
Much love from Canada! Just bought a bottle of Troppo at my local shop. Best of luck with the whole project guys
Oh my! Thank you so much!
Are you planning to use any of the pine in the cellar door? Tabletops or bartops? Would be awesome
Maybe - unfortunately it hasn't been cut appropriately for it - and there's much better timber available in Australia.
What's the plan on the market garden?
Supply cellar door produce? Or produce for local farmers markets/restaurants?

Hello! Why the apple trees don’t have foliage?
Leaves not yet shot as just coming out of winter. They loose leaves in winter.
