Ep. 76 | Behind the Scenes of Life on the Farm: Q & A with Katja and Gillian

Episode 76 of Agsolutely Fabulous is a Q&A with Gillian and Katja, including updates on Gillian’s possible trip south and concerns about flight cancellations, and plans for a live recording at the Duke of Brunswick Hotel (a fully gluten-free venue) featuring a bespoke non-alcoholic cocktail, merch, and possible discounted nearby accommodation. They answer why it’s important for young people to work off their home station—highlighting independence, professional workplace structure, broader agricultural exposure, networking, boundaries, and avoiding assumed knowledge. They discuss hard moments on farm, focusing on overwhelm, mental load, safety anxiety, and feeling dismissed by outsiders, and suggest checking in and listening without immediately offering solutions. They share what meeting them in person is like, clarify “farm” vs “station,” and compare gumboot options, sock strategies, and wet-weather footwear.Links & ResourcesLandcare Australia: https://landcareaustralia.org.au/Find or Register a Group: https://landcareaustralia.org.au/find-a-group/Learn how to Get Involved with Landcare here: https://youtu.be/3s74Lvmlutk💕 Support Our PartnersTHANK YOU TO OUR PODCAST SPONSORS!Farm Table – Your online hub for all things ag, connecting farmers with resources, events, and opportunities.
