Your Story

I’ve been involved in growing stuff most of my life. I owned a wholesale nursery growing non-natives and herbs for 9yrs. I’ve made lots of compost over the years. I’ve worked on farms. I’ve grown lots of vegetables. I’ve also grown a variety of mushrooms. I have good IT skills (Dip IT) A broadacre farmer friend and I are travelling on the Regen path together. We plan on making vast amounts of well priced Johnson Su compost for sale. In the planning stages of making 40 reactors in next 8 weeks. Ultimately hope to have in excess of 120 reactors going at all times.

Challenges I can best help others solve are:

I hope to be able to supply some top quality Fungal Dominant compost to the South West

Key challenges I would like to solve are:

Moving from set stocking to rotational grazing
