The Course · coming soon

From the plant’s perspective.

How a plant really works, and how to turn that into recoveries at the packing shed. Taught by a grower, for growers, and built to put to work on your own crops.

What’s in it

Three questions, in order.

The Course takes the questions a grower asks, one after the other, and answers each from inside the plant out to the paddock.

  1. 1

    The problem

    Why isn’t my program working as well as it should?

  2. 2

    The solution

    What would I do differently, and why?

  3. 3

    The proof and the pathway

    Can I afford to try it, and where do I start?

Who it’s for

For people who grow for a living.

Many of us were taught a way of growing that was meant to be sustainable. Too often it isn’t, and some of the problems we pay to fix, we made ourselves. The course goes back to the plant, to find out why.

Growers

Commercial growers who want to know why, not just what to spray and when. Row crops, tree crops, mixed veg: the fundamentals are the same.

Agronomists & advisers

Advisers who want the plant’s-eye view to take into their clients’ paddocks, with the reasoning behind every call.

“This is what I struggle with as a farmer. So what I’m building is for them to understand.”

Questions

What growers ask.

not here? ask Steve and the team

Do I need a science background?

No. Steve teaches it the way he learned it: see how it works, then put your hands on it. Plain words, a picture for every idea, and one take-home to remember it by.

Can I watch it on my phone?

Yes. It’s built for a phone in the ute as much as a TV at night.

Will it suit my crop?

The fundamentals are the same whatever you grow: row crops, tree crops and mixed veg.

When does it start?

Episode one comes first. Join the waitlist and you’ll hear the day it’s out.

Will any of it be free?

Yes. Short cuts, one idea each, come with the course, free to watch and to pass on.

Is it the same as having Steve on my farm?

No. The course teaches the approach. If you want Steve walking your crop, that’s consulting.
