Bring a little bit of the country into the city with this reasonably close to Melbourne "everything you could want" shop.

It's huge and I really mean that. The range of products is immense from bulk cat food, to electric fence products to premium safety footwear, to water tanks, weed sprayers, etc. All you could want for developing your property or your own smaller backyard.

We were in a spot where we needed fencing in a hurry - no time for concreting in posts and nailing on pickets. We went here for a ready made galvanised steel gate and posts and a roll of wire which was easily installed in our property in half a day and has the safety and screening effect we needed.

They are a very helpful bunch, even if you don't quite know what you want, they can show you a range of alternatives and discuss options with a very knowledgeable view point.

If you don't mind the bit of travel to here, the products you can get are far superior to the "chain store" big hardware type places you might otherwise go to. Both in price and assistance as well as being the type of people who live with and use the products they sell.

So think of a list of stuff you want and have a nice day out in lovely Bacchus Marsh while you also visit this shop.

Approximate cost: $Depends on product - $33 huge pack bulk cat food, $39 safety gum boots etc
