Episode 186. Matt and Connie Wood – Their first year at Wave Hill Station
When Wave Hill Station was sold in a $104 million dollar deal, Jumbuck Pastoral and its consortium of partners became the 4th ever owner of the iconic station in its 140 year history. It was a sale that said “watch this space”.
In this episode, we sit down with Matt and Connie Wood, who we last heard from in episode 123, as they prepared to leave their job as managers at Blina Station in the Kimberley, also owned by Jumbuck Pastoral, to move to Wave Hill Station and take on the mammoth job of managers.
In this episode, Matt and Connie fill us in on the busiest 12 months of their life – which included a new baby, lockdowns, a significant amount of capital expenditure on development works, and all the adventures that have come with it.
