O'BRIENS of THE HUNTER

Susanna and Graeme, grandparents to Olivia, Sophie, Hamish and Elodie
Graeme and Suzanna met in ’65 and married in ’70. Kids born in ’73, ’77 and ’80.
They made a lifestyle choice early on in their marriage to live in the country in the beautiful Hunter Valley and started raising Hereford cattle.
8 years ago they bought a smaller property deciding to downsize their herd (they now have about 20 cows) as they aged (as Graeme & Suz aged, not the cows!). Their property is near Bulga, 23 km out of Singleton. It borders Wollemi National Park and also contains 2 Ha of muscat grapes that they sell to a local winery.
The house is a work in progress but visitors are more than welcome (as we found out recently). The place is taking shape nicely.
The property is run on biodynamic principles and they are now seeing the results of that approach.
As well as 3 kids, they also have those 4 grandkids that they dote on.
They plan on hosting a quiet (it won’t be quiet Graeme!) WWTC Hunter Valley weekend in September or November 2008 as they will be overseas in October. Details here later.
They are looking forward to catching up with folks at the Berrara/ Cudmirrah gathering 15/16 March 2008. Yes, they are booked in!

Other info that GOB didn't divulge - they have various community commitments and responsibilities AND he's a damn good cook!

Thanks for a great visit Graeme and Suz. Seeya in March 08.
