I tried hard to get 2 of my good staff to increase their hours so we could produce more stock and Anita and I do less.
We actually had our first 6 day holiday together (3 weeks back) in 10 yrs.
We have to slow down a bit.
Nobody wanted the work, so i decided to pour bucks in to making the whole op super efficient, so we could produce more, in better conditions, with less staff, and less of our time.
Even without increased sales, the whole thing will recover its costs in 18-20 months.
I am putting in a 9mx6m storage shed
A 9mx6m packing area that can be accessed by semi-trucks so they can be loaded quickly and easily.
A all-weather, insect proof,30mx10m grow tunnel that will hold 50,000 pots with out-of-season lines.
Here are shots of the progress.
Cheers

This is the old potted colour nursery all stripped down.
We next got in industrial skips and dumped most everything.
Clean area for excavation
Excavation
Preparing area for packing sheds
Fill....thats the way to watch your bucks disappear
