VEG: Did you catch the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) NEWS story this week on vegetables? It was great to be interviewed alongside good friend Catherine Velisha about the flow on effects of declining vegetable intake, affecting our health and our farmers. But, there are ways we can turn this around - we need stronger investment from the government in preventive health and as individuals we can all add an extra serve of veg on our plate.

Today, for International Day of Rural Women, we celebrate the vital role women play in driving rural economies and shaping the future of horticulture. Women like Joy, an apple grower from Donnybrook, WA, are leading the way with their resilience, innovation, and dedication. 👩🌾🍎 Joy’s journey from city life to managing an organic farm and packhouse exemplifies how women are making their mark in agriculture. Despite the challenges, she thrives on problem-solving and creating sustainable solutions. "Growing fruit has its fair share of challenges but knowing we're producing something certified organic and healthy for others to enjoy keeps me passionate about what we do," she shared. At Hort Innovation, we are committed to amplifying voices like Joy’s and supporting women across the industry. By fostering opportunities for rural women, we’re cultivating a more innovative and dynamic future for Australian horticulture. 🌱🌟 #HortInnovation #horticulture #InternationalDayofRuralWomen #ruralwomen #oneteam Susie Murphy White
