Brew time!
Healthy turf obviously depends on a vigorous root system, therefore it must have the right environment to develop. With being on a Site of Special Scientific interest we always aim to protect and enhance. After allot of research we have started using a activated microbial turf management program. The compost tea we are using is not a form of fertilizer, but is all about extracting the diversity of life contained in healthy soil by "brewing" a site specific compost in aerated solutions of water, nutrients and bio stimulants. The long term aim is to reduce fertilizer inputs/ increase drought and disease residence thus being able to produce healthy sustainable longterm conditions.

Sustainable golf
With being remote we try to source all golf course furniture locally and in fact make most it on our own - we utilise stones from the beach/driftwood/old whiskey barrels or even old fence posts for perching stands for birds. With winning the waste managment award from the STRI in 2010 its something we pride ourselves on that we are very creative in our sensible management of any waste product.
