Our Staff

Here at Coonong, our staff is an extension of our family.


Here at Coonong, our staff is an extension of our family. We have built a community of committed, passionate individuals who not only work here, but live here.

Local staff work with full time staff from Argentina, and seasonal staff from around the world. With them, they bring experience and knowledge from their family farms and local areas and combine it with our knowledge of the Australian country. We are all invested in not only working here but looking after the land and animals we live with.
