Years of stock grazing on our hillside had left the ground depleted of topsoil and nutrients that had washed away over the years. The hillside was bare with only weed vegetation. Our founder, Richard, decided it was time to transform this area by digging 600 metres of swales that would retain water, stop nutrient wash off and build quality topsoil. The results are remarkable new cover crop has established itself, providing dense feed for our weiner cattle, soil quality is dramatically improved, and the new habitat has drawn a diverse range of animal species.
