Hobart

Hobart Agriculture

Hobart’s agricultural connections extend beyond the city into the Coal River Valley, the Huon Valley and other production areas across Southern Tasmania. The region supports vineyards, berry farms, oyster production, nurseries and livestock enterprises, alongside specialist veterinary care, horticultural inputs, research and industry representation. This directory brings together a practical selection of producers and organisations for growers, farmers, smallholders and agricultural businesses looking for local products, knowledge and support.

Several listed enterprises operate from nearby districts rather than central Hobart. Their services and production activities nevertheless connect directly with the region’s agricultural catchment, from farm-gate fruit and vineyard production to mobile large-animal veterinary work and sector-wide assistance.
