Thank a farmer on your next shop
NSW Farmers Dairy Committee Chair Colin Thompson says the best way to thank farmers is being savvy when you shop.
With the focus well and truly on agriculture during the Royal Easter Show, Mr Thompson said it was important not to forget those flood-affected dairy farmers on the north and south coasts.
“While farmers on the south coast were spared the terrible flooding we saw around Lismore, everyone on the east coast copped an absolute drenching over the past few weeks,” Mr Thompson said.
“Supporting our farmers can be as simple as choosing to buy quality branded Australian products at the supermarket.
“The recovery from these floods will take a long time, but every little bit helps.”
