LOCAL FARM TOURS AND A CELEBRATORY DINNER

We’re working on the programme, speakers and stall holders and putting the finishing touches on some exciting local farm tours and a big feast that will showcase local produce prepared by some very inspiring chefs. We’ll be announcing tickets for the tours and dinner very soon so stay tuned.       

WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY ABOUT GROUNDED

Ian Haggerty, farmer, 2025 Western Australian of the Year.

“A healthy farm ecosystem works with diversity and this is what GROUNDED does. There’s people from all different fields…we have to have diversity and collaboration.”  

David Pollock, Western Australian pastoralist, sustainability thought leader.

“GROUNDED is succession planning – sharing the knowledge is a succession plan for the industry. Succession is what comes next and without collaboration what comes next will be much poorer.”
