Willow Bend Station

Willow Bend Station is a mixed enterprise property with a focus on wool production.

Willow Bend Station covers 3250 hectares of undulating granite country 400 kilometres southwest of Sydney, Australia. The Boorowa river bisects the property, which has a carrying capacity in good years of 16, 000 dse (dry sheep equivalent), allocated between 11, 000 adult sheep (primarily merinos for wool production), 5000 lambs, 300 head of Angus cattle, and about 250 hectares of annual cropping and pasture establishment.

While steering the property and all its inputs and outputs to hopefully be a profitable business most of the time, we do recognise our responsibility to the land itself. So we work to replenish elements the business takes away, like phosphorus exported through the stock that are grown on the place and then leave, and we work to positively improve the land where we can, such as our government-assisted tree planting program (more than 50, 000 natives) over the years.
