With official Fire Danger Seasons coming into force across the State, this is a timely reminder to all our followers to turn your minds to what could be a very serious fire-danger period across the next few months.
The Mount Lofty Ranges Fire Season officially starts on November 17 - but don't wait until then to clean up your properties. No matter whether you live in one of our towns, whether you're a vigneron, or are a broad-acre farmer, CLEAN UP NOW around your property!
Get the leaves out of gutters, reduce weeds, cut back trees and remove other flammable material on land you're responsible for.
As well, IF YOU HAVEN’T DONE SO ALREADY PLEASE REVIEW YOUR ‘FIRE ACTION’ PLAN - and if you don’t have one, please visit the CFS WEBSITE where there are detailed instructions to help prepare you for the fire season ahead.
No matter where you live, reducing fire-hazards in your immediate area is vital, not only to you, but to protect everyone - AND the place we love to live!
Our Budburst in the Barossa event on the Lyndoch Green proved an outstanding success, drawing hundreds of people who celebrated 'budburst' on a balmy Spring evening on Friday October 12.

SMALL BAROSSA WINERIES LEARN HOW TO LEVERAGE MARKETING AND SALES
Representatives from more than 30 small and ‘boutique’ wineries from the Barossa and surrounding regions gathered at the Barossa District Football and Netball Clubrooms in 2018 to hear from a wine marketing expert about wine marketing and sales tactics to take their offerings from their cellar doors to the nation, and to the world.
The Small Winemakers Marketing Workshop was an initiative of the Southern Barossa Alliance (SBA). Our charter includes helping local, innovative businesses expand their business knowledge, increase sales and improve their profitability. When approached by the SBA, Regional Development Australia took the lead to organise the event, while Cooperages 1912 and Abbeyfield Aged Care helped with the catering and Barossa District Football and Netball Club provided the venue.
RDA organised for Rob Turnbull, Director of Bull & Bull Luxury Australian Wines and a leading expert in advising small wineries on marketing and sales, to run the workshop.
Get a coffee (or a good Barossa wine!) and take a quick look at our summary of the event in the video below!
