Oliver Shorthouse of Ramarro Farm

Active Vista’s mission is to assist growers with the development of soil-focused diverse cropping systems with commercially viable seeds, appropriate equipment and soil inputs, and advice and feedback for all growers current needs and particular situations. Active Vista is working diligently behind the scenes to maintain and develop seed supplies for profitable market gardening. Bulk quantities of seeds are at- or near-cost, non-GMO, and include the best hybrid and heritage varieties to suit the context and conditions of growers needs across Australia. Active Vista also takes the battle out of importing specialized tools, providing sales and warranty support for all of their equipment, carry most replacement parts, and have direct lies of communication with suppliers. Active Vista encourages feedback and gives personal attention to all inquiries because it is a vital part of the development of the growing organic community.
