The Southland Rural Support Trust has lined up a bunch of “Brunches on Us” for rural Southland in October.

“There’s no arguing that our Southland farmers deserve a treat every now and then,” says Southland Rural Support Trust Chair Cathie Cotter.

“With the extreme weather conditions over the last two weeks and at this time of year there is a small window after winter, calving, and lambing, where they can take a breath and see how well they’ve done despite all the challenges, so we’ve organised seven Pop-Up brunch BBQ’s and coffee carts in rural areas around the Southland region where we haven’t seen a lot of them recently. The RST and some wonderful sponsors are picking up the cost and we’re hoping farm managers and owners will take the time to send their teams off for a quick treat.”

As well as a free feed and a coffee, farmers can chat to Rural Support Trust, agriculture industry representatives and enter to win a hamper for their team thanks to Rural Women NZ.
