Computer Services
- We made this website. And for a very reasonable price. If your're
interested in a website or have website/hosting related issues
please feel free to call us. But websites are not all we do. We
also fix and repair (is there a difference?) most computer systems
as well as sell computers and related gear and full networking
installation and repair. We're also pretty handy at MS Excel,
Word and Access if you need some assistance there. In other words,
almost any computer related thing the small business may need.
So... um.. call us! Although we're based in the Northern Suburbs
of Melbourne we can reach most of the agriwest regions for little
or no extra cost!

Family Homestead ~ 100% Genuine Free Range Eggs
Davo's Worm Farm
- Davo's Worm Farms is a family business conducted by David and Beth Davidson at their 40 hectare mixed farm at Broomfield in Central Victoria..
David is the current President of the Australian Wormgrowers Association Vermiculture Inc. and has recently been featured in "Acres Australia" .. the Australian Newspaper for Sustainable Agriculture.
He has also had two DVD's produced through www.farmingsecrets.com One focussing on the role of Vermicomposting in Agriculture and the other focussing on Vermicomposting for the home gardener. Viewers of these DVD's have remarked on David's simple but effective communication style, which is combined with extensive practical knowledge.
Davids philosophy is based around Farmers learning how to access the 78% nitrogen content in the free air we breathe as well as accessing the minimum 6 kilometers of mineral laden rock lying beneath the earths crust.
The key to his system is understanding the role that the micro-biology and earthworms play in Mother Natures plan for healthy and sustainable growing of food.
For further details, contact David at www.davoswormfarms.com.au
