"Winderdoon" is our 1 hectare property on the northern slopes of the Tamar valley at Windermere, Launceston, Tasmania. The property has been farmland for over 170 years since settlement, and has now been converted into a food garden and home for us to share with those who share our interests. We also run a small educational support business EduHELPnet.
Our interests are organic gardening for vegetables and berries, native plant propagation, viticulture, winemaking, bird watching , bushwalking and fishing.
The Cool Climate Classroom offers detailed month by month advice on growing vegetables and making wine in a cool climate region.
You must subscribe to access these pages. They are free and are regularly updated, offering guidance for those interested in growing fruit and vegetables in a cool climate such as here in The Tamar Valley. Extensive guidance on growing wine grapes and making wine at home can also be found here.
Please browse our pages and share our interests.
