🍇 Growing something good! 🌿

It’s the perfect time to plant Black Muscat grapes, and we think they could be a fantastic addition to the gardens of our Healthy Heroes entrants! 💚

Not only do grapevines make a beautiful addition to the backyard, but grapes are also a source of vitamin C, making them a tasty addition to a healthy garden.

A big thank you to our valued sponsor, The Rose Garden Nursery, for sharing this great gardening tip and for their ongoing support of the Backyard Improvement Program. 🌱💚

Head over to The Rose Garden Nursery to check out their great range and get your garden growing!

Our grapes are coming out of their winter dormancy. And we are even seeing some little grapelings growing on them! We have a great range in stock now.

🎉 OH, WHAT A NIGHT! 🎉

We’re still smiling thinking about the fun we had hitting the streets with Captain LeadSmart and our Bell & Moir-sponsored vehicle! 🚙💚

A huge thank you to Mount Isa City Council for hosting such an incredible event and for capturing these fantastic photos. 📸👏

It was wonderful to see the streets buzzing with the Mount Isa community, and even better to have Captain LeadSmart out and about spreading a little LeadSmart fun along the way! 🦸‍♂️✨

We’re proud to be part of events like this that bring our community together — and Captain LeadSmart certainly loved being in the thick of it! 😄

🤠 Captain LeadSmart’s Rodeo Weekend! 🎡🐂

Captain LeadSmart had an absolute ball at the Mount Isa Mines Rodeo this weekend! 🎉

From braving the Hurricane and dodgem cars, to checking out the show bags, grabbing a burger from Kik Bak Cafe🍔, finding the perfect Country Trucker Cap, and stopping for a few snaps with some of Mount Isa’s finest 👮‍♂️- he certainly packed a lot into the weekend!

And, of course, Captain LeadSmart was never too busy to stop for a photo with all the wonderful people who spotted him around the grounds. 📸❤️

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped to say hello, have a chat and snap a photo with our favourite cowboy. It looks like Captain LeadSmart might need a few days to recover from his big weekend! 😂

Until next year, Rodeo! 🤠🐂
Captain LeadSmart had a ripper!

Did you spot us at the Isa Street Festival?🤠

Captain LeadSmart had an absolute ball high-fiving, waving and meeting so many smiling faces along the parade route! It was wonderful to see so many kids out enjoying the festivities.

A huge thank you to our amazing army of volunteers who helped hand out hundreds of lollipops to the crowd – we couldn't have done it without you! 🍭💙

If you missed seeing Captain LeadSmart (or missed out on a lollipop 😄), don't worry! We'll be at the Mount Isa Rodeo on Friday and Saturday evenings, so be sure to come and say hello.

We can't wait to see you there! 🤠🐂
