Opinion
It was suggested we sign up for a fencing package offered by the Rapid Relief Team (Farmers Community Connect), after being hit by the recent weather events.
We turned up with our trailer and registration number along with 300 or so other farmers, not really knowing what to expect —and were greeted by enthusiastic, cheerful volunteers and a level of organisation that was truly astounding. The scale of the event far exceeded our expectations.
After our supplies were loaded, we were directed to the hospitality tent where we were welcomed with barista coffees, donuts, burgers, and much more. The catering was amazing. We were able to chat and catch up with others in a similar situation — it was almost a relief to know we were not alone. We came away feeling respected and cared about.
We would like to express our gratitude and thanks to the RRT for their support. Many thanks,
