| About Us The Small Tree Farm is a small family farm
of 40 hectares (100 acres) at Balingup in the south west of Western Australia, operated
since 1980 by partners Andrew Thamo and Christine Sharp.
Trees dominate the enterprises in the form
of nurseries, seed orchards, timber plots, livestock fodder plantings, and for plain old
amenity and good looks.
Grazing is a minor enterprise, but an important theme on
the farm is experimenting with, and demonstration of, greater integration
of trees with farming.
Andrew and Christine are the originators of the Golden
Valley Tree Park arboretum at Balingup and have been closely involved with that
project since 1980. (See link below).
