Mount Adde Farm |
.........
Mount Adde was purchased from the Government by CJ Harris. Corriedale Sheep and Angus Cattle were run from the beginning. In 1983 Ron and Helen Harris purchased Mount Adde and continued with Corriedale and Angus, as well as introducing Merino Sheep to add diversity when fine wool prices were high. Fencing, tracking, shelterbelts, and stock water dams have been an ongoing committment. In 2000 Greg the third generation returned home full time and has since bought into the business he now manages with assistance from his parents and other employee's. Soon after Greg returned home irrigation water was secured a dam constructed and our first Sauvignon Blanc grapes were planted. Three blocks of vines now complement our commercial sheep and cattle operation, along with Mount Adde Corriedale Sheep and Angus Cattle Studs.
