Sco-op
March 2025Dear Members, Suppliers, Directors, and Team,
In the lead-up to the Easter, Anzac Day & School Holidays it is time to bring back the “Slow Down & Enjoy the ride” campaign.
Soon enough we are all going to be busy with seeding. Working long days, & even longer nights, to get ground prepared and the seed in the ground to give it the best chance for the new season.
Why not take this short break to get your staff , and yourself, prepared & rested for the time ahead.
If you are going to hit the roads, please be aware there are going to be many others doing the same. So please take care, slow down and enjoy the ride; we live in a beautiful part of the country. We will see you when you get back.
