Im originally from Cunderdin and my wife Danae is from Dowerin where her family still farm.
We lived and worked on a farm in Wagin before moving to Dunsborough where we had a turf renovation and lawn mowing business after that we moved back to Perth where I started with CSBP.
My area was Narrogin and surrounds after 5 years I moved over to Nutrien fertiliser before we were offered the opportunity to purchase the Nutrien store in Wyalkatchem. We officially took over on the 1st Oct 2024 and have been enjoying the change in lifestyle and challenges that a small business offers.
