Welcome to ALTBAYS Show (feat. Brando Yelavich and Leo Magri)
Tony grew up and lived in Maramarua until he was 21.
He left school at the end of 1969 without academic qualifications but scored a mechanics apprenticeship with the NZ Forest Service.
He moved places and managed many workshops until the Labour government sold off all their Forests, and he was made redundant in 1989. This led Tony to become a jack of all trades. He says he had more jobs than most of us have had Christmas dinners! Most of the jobs he had were in sales, repping and managing. His experience in the bush facilitated a hunting guiding job.
Tony knows a lot about NZ bush. He identifies plants and knows what they are suitable for, knowledge that, unfortunately, not many have nowadays.
He comes to the Altbays Show to share stories about being out there in nature and the importance of adaptability.
ALTBAYS Show invites awesome people from Aotearoa, New Zealand, to have an honest, laid-back conversation. Our platform focuses on bringing communities together to grow and thrive.
