Instant Turf Geelong & Bellarine Peninsula
John Cotter was a founder of the business, and the family interest of turf farming continues today with John Cotters’ son Ryan and daughter Sasha, now owning and operating the entire business. Ryan and Sasha both grew up on the farm with Ryan commencing his working career as a production farm hand.
In the early days of Anco, John employed a young Chris Bell who was a promising Under 19 Geelong footballer to help with the day to day running of the farm. Over the ensuing years several Geelong footballers worked part time for the company that back then only grew Ryegrass and Bluegrass turf. One of the original farm staff, Alistair Errey, is still with us and is the Head of Turf Production for the company.

The Torquay farm was also the birthplace of the turf that adorns the “famous Flemington Racetrack”.
Caulfield and Werribee Racecourses along with several other high profile and quality sports surfaces, sourced their turf from the Torquay farm.

The Torquay farm turf is grown using recycled water from the Black Rock treatment plant along with captured rainwater runoff. No potable water is used in irrigation during the turf production process.
We employ over 30 staff on a permanent basis. Several of the staff are long serving qualified members of the greater turf industry and their overall knowledge of all things turf is astounding. This knowledge factor is often underestimated by clientele as a by-product and is a service that... Read More
