Description:
We met Sarah McLean a young beef farmer from Purnim, near Warrnambool in our first season. This time she’s back to talk about an incident that prompted her to think more carefully about farm safety and how their family could be doing things better – even as young farmers on a budget.

Sarah talks about how making changes to the way you work and setting yourself up to enjoy farming can be just as important for safe operating as upgrading your infrastructure and equipment.

Through the Victorian Government funded Making our Farms Safer project, the Victorian Farmers Federation (VFF) is providing farm safety advice and support for all Victorian farmers, visit https://www.vff.org.au/project/making-our-farms-safer/ for more information.
