Volunteers for Land Maintenance - April 2022
‘Farming for Kids’ offer a shout-out to Murray Bartholomew, plus the crew from Double R Equipment for recently volunteering to work-up the land we grow our fundraising crops on at the Quirindi Airport.
The success of our group is totally dependent on all the volunteers and sponsors who continue to support us. Having raised over $200,000.00 from growing, harvesting and selling crops on land leased at the Quirindi Airport (all our funds go to assist Liverpool Plains children) we are always grateful to those that pitch in and help. “This was the first working of the paddock for 12 months to combine the vegetable matter instead of spraying it. We are looking to volunteer working-up the land again, once it’s a bit dryer and preparing it more for a June wheat sowing,” said Murray… who also thanked Kenton and Rob Shaw from Shaw’s Transport Gunnedah who donated the low-loader truck to bring the tractor to the Farming for Kids site. “Farming for Kids is an amazing organisation that supports and assists the next generation and if we can help in any way we are pleased to,” added Murray. Thank you to Double R Gunnedah and Murray Bartholomew for supporting our organisation. |
