Held for the first time in 2017, the conference was the brainchild of the Kulin Community Resource Centre with the inaugural theme “The Spirit of Innovation”.
This year’s theme was “The Spirit of Connection”.
Presenters delved into a range of topics relevant to farmers both young and old, including succession planning, telling untold stories, politics and social media.
