Are you a YAP based in South West Victoria?  Young Agriculture Professionals(YAP’s) Network is designed for the youngest active generation on the farm, emerging leaders in agriculture, and anyone involved or interested in the agricultural industry. It’s a great opportunity to learn, network, and socialize with like-minded individuals.

The inaugural event Fields of Futures dinner at GMHBA stadium marks the beginning of the project aimed at uniting South-West Victoria’s agricultural community, fostering a supportive network that can be relied upon during both good and tough times. YAPs is supported by Southern Farming Systems, SW Node of the Victorian Drought Resilience Adoption & Innovation hub and funded by the Australian Government’s Future Drought Fund.

YAPs offers a network of support and aims to build a resilient community through events, publications, resources, and services. It will be a network where members can seek help, offer advice, or simply connect in what can sometimes be an isolating industry.

If that sound’s like you!  Join us at the Fields of Futures dinner on Wednesday 14 August at GMHBA stadium in Geelong and become a YAP.  The dinner will feature special guests including Geelong Cats premiership player Rhys Stanley, the inspiring Dr Elle Moyle of Pathfinder Angus and hosted by the charismatic Oli Le Lievre from Humans of Agriculture, this evening promises to be both enlightening and entertaining.

This event is a ticketed only event,  free for anyone aged 18+, including partners, family, friends, or colleagues involved or interested in agriculture. Get your tickets by July 30th to secure your spot. Bus transportation will be available from multiple pickup points throughout the Western Districts, with return service provided after the event.
