Introducing Farm Source Charitable Giving, where Farm Source Reward Dollars can be donated to the Rural Support Trust

Fonterra Charitable Giving - When times are tough, it's our farmers who dig in to support each other and their communities - that's what being part of a Co-op is all about. Right now, many in the communities we live and work in could do with some of that help.

Micha Johansen, who farms in Eketahuna, came to us with an idea... what if Farm Source Reward Dollars could be donated to charity? We thought it was a brilliant idea.

Introducing Farm Source Charitable Giving, where Farm Source Reward Dollars can be donated to four charities close to our Co-op - one of them is the Rural Support Trust.

The other three are: Feed Out, New Zealand Food Network and Trees That Count.

To donate, sign into your Farm Source Rewards account.

Opinion : Are we doing rural mental health right?

Opinion : Are we doing rural mental health right?

In my line of work, I see people at their best and worst.

It can be challenging and gradual but being a part of the experience of fundamental change within someone suffering from mental health challenges, is the most rewarding experience I can think of.
