About Me
Over the past 15+ years I have combined my love for Gardening and my passion for taking people over the Kokoda Track into a lifestyle business.
Kokoda is less an option for me now so I combine with my wife, Bernadette, in her flower growing, arranging and selling in the business known as 'Field.Surfcoast'. Check out her socials [instagram @field.surfcoast], amazing!
I am always accompanied by one of my trusty dogs as they love to check things out around the surfcoast (always up for a pat too!)
