It, along with the chemical/pump shed, are located near the bore and close to the entrance as you come into the orchard. The irrigation system is automated to work remotely from a cell phone from water supplied from a bore located within the property and a frost control fan is centrally located to provide effective coverage across the property.

The orchard vine planting layout is opposing female with the vine canopy grown over timber post and ag-beam pergola frames with timber posts and wired end assemblies.

There is a mix of mature shelter trees and the property has been contoured and nova drainage has been installed to control water drainage and flow.

Being early start gold and green without girdling is just another reason to seriously consider this operation.
