<p class="MsoNormal">Alan and I established a trufferie (truffle orchard) in 2013 – hoping to prove that this would be a viable crop for this area. Six years on we have proved that truffles do grow well here, and it is a commercially viable crop. We have established
an export market in the USA that can absorb what this region can produce. Our vision is that this may help make farms in this area more viable in the long term.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Cultivating truffles successfully requires a level of understanding and so I have organised for Australia’s leading experts in truffles to deliver training. Given Covid-19, this
will comprise an online seminar program set up as a four episode program for viewing in your own time and place. It contains heaps of video & interviews and comments from nine industry people and is up-to-date and current info.
