Emaho Trees is a boutique tree farm specializing in a range of advanced, premium quality, Australian native trees grown in-ground for sub tropical to cool temperate landscaping. The property’s rich volcanic soil and climate is well suited to many popular and unique trees required to be hardy, drought tolerant and low maintenance.

The 40 acre farm was established in 2002 by James and Barbara McGeoch and was designed around sustainable farming practices.  The farm operates on renewable energy, harvests rainwater for irrigation, uses only organic fertilisers and is a proud supporter of the local business and horticultural community.
 

James has over 20 years’ experience working overseas through his company, Birkdale International, in Hong Kong, China and Macau landscaping high profile projects including Disneyland in Hong Kong and Shanghai and the City of Dreams, Cotai Strip, Macau.

In 2017, James and Barbara established a consultancy company in China, Ornatec International Consultancy (Beijing) Limited.  Through this company, James consults to the Zhengdong New District Management Committee, Shanghai Gardens (Group) Co. Limited and Beijing Florascape Company. He has since retired from Birkdale International although he continues to consult on a range of projects in Hong Kong, China and Macau.

Both James and Barbara have been very active in supporting the exporting community in Australia and served on a number of government and industry Boards. Barbara is a Director of the Export Council of Australia which advocates and promotes Australian exports and raises the awareness of the importance of exporting to Australia's economy.
