On hot days like this please take care of your dogs. It is too hot and humid to walk them during the day as they struggle to keep cool and can easily over heat especially if in a car! Hose them down, swim in a dam, give frozen treats or like Bud put out a bucket of water.
We can help feed and care of all your friends.
Deliveries available within Macedon Ranges.

For the love of chickens! (and their eggs)...
This crisp Solstice has been pretty lovely for us humans but where are the EGGS! Lots of people are reporting that their chooks are off the lay. While this is quite normal in winter and particularly when the weather changes sharply, there are things you can do to get the ladies back on the job.
Come on in to the Woodend Produce Store and have a chat to our resident chicken aficionados and get the lowdown on upping protein and keeping the ladies warm, and the kiddos will be back on the egg hunt in no time.
The rains are coming! But before they do, this reasonably mild weekend ahead is perfect for getting the jobs done....
....and suddenly you remember that those old boots have a leak! Don't squelch through another winter. Come on in and we'll sort you out for a super comfy, truly Australian made pair of boots - perfect for ALL the jobs, AND puddle jumping with the kids or grandkids.
This time of the year is a great time to get a few of those jobs done, that mean you are not out in the driving rain nor belting sun. And fencing is definitely one of those jobs. Time to get it in order.
If you are not sure about where to start, we can help with that too. The team are more than happy to spend time guiding you through the equipment you'll need to do it yourself, or to recommend a contact to outsource.
Our large range of fencing in stock includes:
Heavy Netting, Chicken Netting in a range of sizes for animal enclosures.
Fencing Wire, Hinged Joint, Stiff Stay and Farm Lite for Boundary fencing.
Pine poles, star posts in a range of sizes.
Mesh Panels and Reo Mesh

and don't forget.... Ready to use TREE GUARDS!

GOING POTTY? Autumn is such a good time to get out into the garden and give little hands something constructive to do before the weather gets too bitey. Give the little ones their own little potted garden to create for themselves, some seeds and they're away - a perfect way to get them growing their own greens! Now is the time to plants broc and brussels - gorgeous winter food!
You remember that dream...move to the country...raise chickens....
And then you wake-up to find yourself sitting in a cafe in Woodend, Victoria earnestly discussing the pros and cons of various chook mahal designs, and the whys and hows of fox behaviour.
So, for the #loveofchickens...we've got some super in store "Chook" specials including some of the top feeds and seeds.
Whisper has it that after the wet winter the rodents are on the march again, so now is the time to get your feeds into rodent proof bins - we can guide you on this one.
And we're doing 20% off all metal feeders and drinkers for March - also good for keeping the rats away.
So for happy chooks, drop in for all the top poultry ranges, certified organic feeds, supplements, wormers, pest control, bedding, feeders, drinkers ( including automatic ) nesting boxes and treats!
And you'll be in #eggheaven soon!
Is this not the most perfect summer for gardening? We seem to be having just a lovely balance of sunshine and rain to keep some green on the ground and the gardens lush.
New in at Woodend Produce Store are baby rhubarb crowns, and loads of other seedlings ready to go in now.
Oh. And mulch. You can never have enough of the stuff. Pea straw ready to go, baled and also chopped if you prefer.

Happy Christmas 2016
T'is the season for grace, thanks and giving.
Do you know someone who is keen to start a vegie patch and would love a Chrissy starter? or perhaps you've got some gaps? Between now and 3pm Saturday, pick up a couple of punnets of seedlings and we'll toss you in a free punnet of your choice....our greens need good homes before the mini-break!
The count is on till 3pm Saturday when we hang up the boots for some well earned family time. So. Last reminder to check your gas bottles - and don't forget to check the BBQ bottle! Drop in, and we'll fill it for you.
Happy Chrissy from Mick, Fee, Liam and Angus. And William too, except he evacuated at the mere sniff of a camera! We thankyou for your loyal custom in 2016 and look forward to a fabulous 2017.
Weeding in November 2016
Shall we mention the war?
Yup. It's that time of the year. Time to bring out the big guns.
This year Woodend Produce Store has some great organic and bio options that are far more friendly to everyone except the bad guys. Drop in, bring your offending weed if you wish, and ask Mick, Fee or the team to identify what is going to bring you the most joy.
If you'd like to bring a bloom for the vase on the counter you can do that too!
