CMA Landcare Leaders - Hamish Bailey

Glenelg Hopkins CMA Landcare Leaders series Hamish Bailey, Park Hill, Wannon How going hard early is paying dividends 20 years later By his own admission, Hamish Bailey went hard early when he returned to the family farm 20 years ago with his fencing and revegetation works. It’s something he now looks back on with pride because he can see the benefit of that investment of time and effort on the banks of the Wannon River, across the visual landscape of his farm and in the win-win situation he finds himself with a more productive farm and increased biodiversity. It’s also given him the knowledge that the trees he continues to plant today, will be worth it in generations to come.
