It's dedicated to connecting our wonderful farmers with health conscious consumers and ethically minded shoppers. Together, we can all learn more about the food we eat and the fibre we wear. This is your exclusive look behind the farm gate. As a country girl herself, Angie knows you'll love what you hear. From the freshest produce, to carbon neutral wool. What about female shearers and farms that give more to the land than they take in the battle against climate change? Is it possible to drought and flood proof your business through diversification so prices don't fluctuate so much at the supermarket? We tackle the most common misconceptions about life on the land and have many laughs along the way with some of the most memorable characters you could ever meet.

Whether it be adapting to changes in climate or bolstering natural capital. Paris Capell is a passionate young agricultural professional who is helping to make a meaningful mark on the future of farming, and she joins me now. Paris' favourite place is being in the 'living classroom of home'. Realising agriculture was her path while working at the local pool in summer. She started wondering where the dust settling in the pool was coming from and, if it was her family farm.

She feels proud when she steps onto farms, learning from and working alongside other farmers. Paris explains the concept of carbon farming and natural capital. She is part of the NFF's National Agricultural Leadership Program and is passionate about the connections, the policy space, and future opportunities. Paris discusses Australian Carbon Credits and how carbon can be used to support sustainability in farming.
