Our Farmers. Our Future

"Our Farmers, Our Future"- That's the tagline for 2012 The Year of the Farmer



I was reminded today that 2012 will be Australian National Year of the farmer.

The message presented by this great program headed up with famous names like Glenn McGrath and the Governor-General of Australia Ms Quentin Bryce AC aims to promote farmers and farming practices and to remind the general public about the roles that Farmers and farming industries and communities have in their everyday lives whether they realise it or not.



Check out this video below by Cricketing Legend and Australian Year of the Framer Ambassador Glenn McGrath:









As with everything it is vitally important that we get out there and show Australia the story of the farmer. AYOF presents us with that ability, so we can tell our story and show our involvement in making Australia run.



I'm sure as further information and plans come to the table we will all be able to play a role in what looks to be a great year. So why not attend and event, host an event or even just let your voice be heard and tell your story and let everyday Aussies see how much of a role we play in their lives.
