Our Story
My Backyard Oasis began with one simple dream: helping people create their very own backyard paradise. Whether you’re a property owner or a renter, we believe everyone deserves a relaxing outdoor retreat, no matter the size or scope.
We’ve built a collaborative community for backyard enthusiasts who are passionate about DIY projects, entertaining loved ones, and soaking up the best of outdoor living. From laid-back BBQs to cozy firepits, we’re here to inspire you with ideas that bring your backyard dreams to life.
Think of us as your friendly neighbour who’s always ready to lend a hand or share tips on everything from creating lush lawns to designing stunning outdoor kitchens. We understand the excitement (and sometimes frustration) of turning your backyard into a space you’re proud of. That’s why we’re here to guide, support, and laugh with you every step of the way.
The Team
At the heart of My Backyard Oasis is our founder, Michael Horne. A proud husband, dad to two young girls, and an expert at juggling family life with his passion for property and backyard adventures, Michael brings an authentic Aussie vibe to everything we do.
When he’s not wrangling the kids or perfecting his lawn game, you’ll find him firing up the BBQ with a cold beer in hand, planning camping trips, or enjoying some downtime with his family. Michael knows firsthand the value of creating a backyard that’s not just functional, but also fun and welcoming.
Our team is made up of equally passionate outdoor lovers who share Michael’s enthusiasm for helping others create their own backyard retreats. We’re not just here to talk about backyards—we live and breathe them.
