THROWBACK THURSDAY 💚🍇

Back to where it all began…

It started with a small idea, a family business, a couple of people willing to have a go, some machinery and plenty of hard work — with a simple goal to help growers get the job done.

Vineyard Mates has changed a lot since those early days, but one thing hasn’t:

We wouldn’t be here without the growers who backed us.

To every customer who gave us a go, called us back, recommended us to a mate, trusted us with their vineyard or simply supported us along the way — thank you.

We’re incredibly grateful to still be doing what we set out to do all those years ago.

A LOT HAPPENS BETWEEN BUDBURST & HARVEST. 🌱🍇

And anyone who grows grapes knows there's rarely such a thing as “just one job.” 😂

Spraying. Irrigation. Trellis repairs. W**d management. Canopy work. Machinery. Harvest.

Then there's everything you didn't have on the list.

That's vineyard life.

You don't need someone to tell you how to grow grapes.

Sometimes you just need good people, the right machinery and another set of hands to get the work done when it needs doing.

That's what we're here for.

From the first signs of spring through to harvest and beyond —

We're your Vineyard Mates.

You probably know what needs spraying, what’s broken and what job is next.

But do you know what your vineyard is actually costing you — in money, time and headspace?

Is your vineyard working for you… or are you working for the vineyard? 🌱

BUDS ARE MOVING. SO IS THE CLOCK. 🌱

Spring in the vineyard doesn't wait.

One minute the vines are dormant… then budburst arrives and suddenly the season is underway.

After a wet winter, there's been plenty of moisture around — and as new green growth appears, protecting that fresh growth becomes one of the priorities.

The first sprays aren't something you want to be organising at the last minute.

Because successful spraying isn't simply about getting product onto the vines.

It's about:

🌱 Growth stage — knowing when protection needs to begin
🌦️ Conditions — finding the right window to spray
🚜 Equipment — achieving effective, consistent coverage
⏰ Timing — getting there when the vineyard needs it, not when it's already become urgent

If you're planning to do your own spraying this season — get your program, chemicals and machinery ready.

If you'd rather take one more job off your plate, that's where Vineyard Mates can help.

From those first early-season applications through the growing season, we can provide the machinery, operators and vineyard experience to get the job done.

Don't wait until you see the problem.

If you need spraying support this spring, talk to us now so we can get your vineyard into the program.

Happy Father’s Day 💚

Today we celebrate all the dads, grandads, stepdads, father figures and hardworking blokes who guide us, support us and quietly do so much for their families.

To the dads spending today with their families, working in the vineyard, tending the farm—or remembered with love—we hope today brings a moment to appreciate what truly matters.

From our family at Vineyard Mates to yours, Happy Father’s Day!

THE JOB LIST GROWS AS FAST AS THE VINES 🌱🍇

It starts with those first shoots.

Then suddenly there’s spraying to organise, weeds growing, irrigation to check, canopy work to keep on top of… and before you know it, you're looking down a vineyard full of growth wondering where the season went.

That's vineyard life.

There is always another job.

And for many growers, the challenge isn't knowing what needs doing.

It's finding the time, people and machinery to get it done when it needs to be done.

That's where Vineyard Mates comes in.

We're here to work alongside you.

You might need us for one job.

You might need help through a busy few weeks.

Or you might want a reliable team you can call on throughout the season.

Whatever it looks like, our job is simple:

Help you stay ahead of the vineyard — instead of constantly chasing it.

Because the right job, done at the right time, can make a big difference by the end of the season.

You don't have to do every job yourself.

If there's something on your vineyard list that keeps getting pushed to tomorrow, give Vineyard Mates a call.

Let's get it off the list.

Keep moving. But make sure you’re moving in the right direction.

There will always be another job waiting.

The question is — do you have to be the one doing all of them?

We want to see growers win. 🌱

Not just in the vineyard — but in business and in life.

Because success shouldn’t mean being stretched to breaking point.

Sometimes winning means getting the right help, taking a little pressure off and creating more time for the things that matter.

That’s what Helping Growers Succeed means to us.
