Who knew grass could create careers?

Jamie and Karen had a great day representing Mallee Turf at SuniTAFE’s AgVenture Day, talking to students about the opportunities available within the turf industry.

Many people don’t realise the turf industry is about much more than mowing lawns. There are career pathways in turf production, irrigation, machinery operation, landscaping, sports turf management, agronomy and business ownership.

We’re passionate about showing young people that there are plenty of rewarding careers available right here in our region, and we’d love to continue working alongside organisations like SuniTAFE to help showcase those opportunities.

Thanks to SuniTAFE for having us and to all the students who stopped by our stand and asked questions throughout the day. We hope we inspired a few future turf managers along the way! 🌱

Not all turf is grown the same… and we’re happy to show you why.

At Mallee Turf, we’re proud to be the ONLY AusGAP Certified turf grower in the Mildura region. That means our farm is independently audited and held to strict national standards for quality, genetic purity, w**d control, farm practices and customer satisfaction.

We don’t hide the process either.

This video shows part of what happens behind the scenes on our farm — identifying w**d issues early, monitoring our paddocks closely and constantly improving what we do so our customers get the best turf possible.

Are we the cheapest? Probably not.

But when you buy from us, you’re getting premium turf grown under one of Australia’s highest turf certification programs — not just rolled-up grass from a paddock.

We believe you get what you pay for:
- Certified premium turf
- True-to-type grass varieties
- Strict quality control
- Local support and advice
- A team that genuinely cares about the end result

We’re not perfect, but we work bloody hard to give our customers the best lawn possible 🌱

We get asked all the time what we’re actually doing out on the farm.

So I figured when I get a chance — and actually remember — I’ll start posting a few more behind-the-scenes videos of what we’re up to out here at the farm. Turf farming is still pretty new to the area, so a bit of education and insight into what goes on behind the scenes can’t hurt.

Just a warning though, my media resume isn’t exactly elite, so you’ll have to put up with the rawness of my content.

So if you drive past and see me looking like an absolute derro talking to my phone or filming myself, now you know why.

If there’s anything you’d like me to show or something you want to learn more about, just send me a message.

Mick’s been away… and somehow another turf variety followed him home accidentally..

Any guesses?

This will be a first for Mildura, so we’ll be trialling it!

👉 🚫 MYTH BUSTERS: “You can’t lay turf in Autumn”… WRONG 🌱

🍂 Think you can’t lay turf in Autumn? Think again… 🌱

This is one of the biggest myths we hear — “better wait till Spring”…
But truth is, Autumn is one of the BEST times to lay turf 👇

✅ Warm soil = strong root growth
The ground is still holding heat from Summer, which helps your lawn establish quickly

✅ Less water needed 💧
Cooler days = less evaporation = less stress on your new lawn (and your wallet)

✅ Ideal growing conditions
Cool air + warm soil = the sweet spot for turf to thrive

✅ Less pressure on your lawn
No extreme heat, no harsh conditions — just steady, healthy growth

💬 We’ve grown our turf right here in Irymple, so it’s already suited to local conditions
🌱 And yes… we lay turf right through Autumn (and even Winter)

So if you’ve been holding off… now might actually be the perfect time..

Buy local. Lay local. Grow local.
