Fourjay Farms is a family partnership located on the Central
Tablelands of NSW, just south of the city of Orange . The partners in the business are Basil and Jean Baldwin, Dave and Carolyn Stansfield. Our hazelnut orchards are planted on deep, fertile, red soils of
volcanic origin. The climate is one of
cool to cold winters and warm summers with an average annual rainfall of 820
mm. The soils and climate are ideal for
hazelnut production.
Our emphasis is growing healthy trees to produce a health-giving
product. We provide an appropriate nutritional
program for the trees, which have supplementary irrigation in a dry
season. Plantings of native trees and
shrubs around the orchards provide habitats for a wide range of birds and insects. We do not use pesticides for pest or disease
control.
