Daylesford Garden Supply one-stop-shop

Jay Torrance took over Daylesford Garden Supply from his uncle four years ago and hasn’t looked back.

The family business of 20 years now is expanding yearon-year and is very much a one-stop-shop for all the garden supply needs for those in Daylesford and surrounds.

Jay, who works alongside his team consisting of his brother Connor and his drivers Darryl and Ben, said his first move had been to start up a website and a Facebook page, so all the new residents moving to the region could find him.

Next were things like multiple sized and bigger trucks for the deliveries happening around Hepburn Shire and beyond to places including Trentham, Ballan, Guildford, Blackwood and Castlemaine.

They carry around everything needed for landscaping from topsoils and compost to aggregate and crushed rock materials and mulch, bark and toppings. There’s also sleepers, garden edging, reclaimed timber, feature rocks and mulch.

And to bring all that together there are also star pickets, a large range of pots, bagged compost & potting mix, concrete, mortar & cement - and even mulch and firewood – maybe for the firepit.

Jay said during Covid there was a definite uptick in people focusing on their properties – value adding by creating amazing outdoor areas.

“Locals and AirBnBs are always coming to us to dress up their properties and whenever anyone is getting ready to sell, or have just bought, they usually pay us a visit.”

Jay said he had been working in construction for about nine years, commuting from Daylesford, but was looking for a change to be nearer his family.

“My uncle was ready to move on to something else and I could see how I could take the business to the next level. It is fantastic to have a family business and Connor and I bounce off each other with ideas.

“We really want to grow with the town and the region and just move with it.

“We love working with our local community and would like to invite new residents to the shire, whether they be permanent or holiday home buyers, to come on in to our store and see if there is anything at all we can help them with. No job is too big or too small for us. We are here to help.”
