Ove the last 10 years since purchasing our property we have planted tens of thousands of native trees. Our boundary was the first planeted, since then a 2 hectare block, which is now covered by a QEII covenant. Along with the plantings ion gardens surrounding the grape vines to act as windbreaks, it has created a wonderful diverse ecological place to live. We use photo voltaic cells for power production, we collect our own water and treat our own waste.
