So which one is the compost one?


Chris our agronomist is busily calculating the yields from our two pasture and two grain trials. He says not to hold our breaths.....its been very dry and we may need to wait another season to truly see results in the soil and in the paddocks. Despite a terrible season of failed crops in the Central West region the wheat trial in Condobolin (picture taken in winter) did actually produce some wheat. Here we all are trying to work out which plots have compost on them and which plots have DAP and which have neither or both. Luckily you can't see our confused faces.
We will keep you posted.

Netwaste Visit to Goulburn



The composting site at Goulburn has become a top holiday destination for folks interested in low cost composting of food scraps and garden waste. In November the NETWASTE group of councils popped in for a visit and even took us out to lunch later.


Luckily it was a collection week so the NETWASTE folks were able to see first hand what the City to Soil collection looks like when it arrives. "Look mum - no smell!" Gotta love those compostable bags.

A new compost toy!


Things are highly mechanised at Condobolin now!
