Invite to enjoy gap year helping out our farmers

‘HAVE fun, earn money and get outta town’ is the message to young people who are being encouraged to try a new type of gap year.

Thankful4Farmers is calling on them to spend the time in their own backyard helping out the agricultural and hospitality industries in our rural and regional communities who desperately need workers.
Farmers have relied on overseas seasonal workers and backpackers to help harvest the fruit and vegetables but are facing unparalleled labour shortages as a result of Covid and its border closures.
