Hobart Haven
Backyard Trail · 36b Hobart Dr, Spotswood · Booklet #1
Seton and Hayley's terraced 1/4 acre backyard is a 9 year journey in sustainable abundance. Built on a sloping section with 90% upcycled structures, this property creatively produces diverse vegetables, herbs, and fruit—from subtropical bananas, pineapples and watermelons to stone fruits, citrus, and berries. Dog poo composting, windbreaks, heat retention, water storage and watering systems work together to create a thriving backyard.
