Where It All Began: The Founding Story of Gillies & Mackay | NattyShedLife Podcast

Before the sheds, before the awards, back where it all started… there were three people building something out of nothing: Grant, John and Caroline.

In this special episode, Cara looks back at the real beginnings of Gillies & Mackay – not as a company, but as a young family trying to make a life.

Working in an old farm, raising five children, borrowing tools and favours, learning as they went… they created a business that's over 35 years in now, built on the foundations of love, graft, courage and pure belief.

This is the story of where G&M truly started – in a home, in a family, and in the hearts of three people who gave everything to build something that would last.

This penultimate episode of Season 1 of the NattyShedLife Podcast is a warm, honest tribute to the people who made it possible.
