Event details

August 15, 2025 6:00 PM
Gore Town & Country Club, 9 Bury Street, East Gore, NZ

Join B+LNZ for an evening that’s all about sparking fresh thinking and future-focused conversations around the red meat sector and how we can keep our young farmers inspired, engaged, and ready to lead.

 

Get ready for a no-holds-barred panel featuring passionate young farmers who are shaking things up.

They’re tech-savvy, solutions-driven, and not afraid to challenge the norm.

From the paddock to policy, they’re bringing energy, insight, and optimism to the ag sector.

Expect real talk, good laughs, and a whole lot of inspiration as they share what motivates them, what they’ve learned, and why they believe farming is the future.
