Hello Farmstylers,

I'm Justin Bunt, have just wound up a South Coast NSW local foods distribution business (Pigeonhouse150) after 3 years. Despite fantastic demand for the products I was distributing the business never reached viable level because of supply issues - basically the small growers and producers were unable to scale up.

Hi there,

I recently bought a farm with a reasonable size dam. Each time it rains the water looks murky and I suspect this is due to the sides of the dam being exposed to the run off and rain. I am trying to find out how I can stop this issue and came up with the following options:

1. Line the sides with plastic sheets and ensure the top edges are secure to the soil.

2. Plant bushes or grasses on the sides to stop erosion.

I'm a new farmer of a established orchard, i want them all organic

Hi all, love this website. To start: I have a few million questions. I purchased my land 2 years ago; 20 ac + 12 ac riverfront grazing licence.The  previous owners bred a small number of cattle for money, currently I am  aggisting about 45 sheep for a neighbour (no profit, just keep the grass down), but looking at moving forward to making my own money from the place. The former house burnt down in the black sat fires, before i bought it. I work full time shift work in melb, and can, at the moment only get there every second week.

Hi All,

I'm a University student, and while not a farmer, I am tasked with developing an innovation that would assist the agricultural industry.

I need some feedback on my idea, and given I’m only a city slicker (although I don’t intend to be forever) I don’t have the country connections I require! As such, I figured this lovely community is a great place to connect and get some feedback!

Hi everyone, thanks for allowing my to join, I have heard nothing but great things about this space.

My family has many dreams, but the major is to create a safe long term home & Business for our 2 children who have complex needs and a place for our other children to always call home.

Hi all,

I am a 45Yo looking to purchase land to retire to as a 15 year goal. I am currently interested in 180 acres in the Oberon NSW area.

My goal is to purchase the land now which is a "blank canvas" of fenced and dammed paddocks. Over time I will need to improve with yards, shed and eventually a house.I am quite prepared to spend every weekend at the farm (currently live in Sydney). we have friends in the area that we visit regularly, and love the lifestyle and climate of the area.
