The inclusion of the From Paddock to Plate Program has seen an increase of 25% in visitation to the festival and the beginnings of a change in demographics to a younger target audience, which is what we had hoped for.
As a dedicated dairy farm enterprise it is very exciting to see the fruits of Louise’s many months of labour, to capture the essence of agriculture – in every aspect – and present it as an entertaining, captivating and well-paced series of educational videos.
