Hello there,
Welcome to our little spot of inspiration.
Our story
Ag Journey Australia started as an idea only shared with the sheep on a long dusty muster. Community instilled confidence to get the idea out of the paddock and onto paper. Supported by the community at Agrifutures Australia through the Rural Women’s acceleration grant program, we jumped on the radio and into Women’s Agenda and that idea caught the ears of more than a mob of sheep!
“Fostering the young minds of Australia with the connections and confidence to be eyes wide opened and solutions focused is the key to thriving communities and industry.”
Connection.
Without it kids miss out on what agriculture has to offer. Creative ideas stay only with the ears of sheep. The Aus Ag industry misses out on the brightest minds.
Teach.
To share knowledge. To ignite passion. To educate.
Because,
Teaching leads to understanding leads to love
And love,
Leads to longevity. In career. In community. In Agriculture.
Inspiring unthought of journeys in agriculture.

Our founder + teacher + farmer + mother
Hi, my name's Em. Welcome to Ag Journey Australia! I live, work and farm on Wiradjuri Country in the Central West of New South Wales with my husband and two children.
Raising our children on the land and being a farmer was a dream of mine that finally eventuated in 2022 when we embarked on our Ag Start-up journey establishing a mixed farming enterprise.
I am a leader in rural education with extensive experience teaching in rural schools and having studied a Bachelor of Social Science Psychology and Bachelor of Secondary Teaching.
I have chosen to live, teach and build a business in rural Australia and work in Agriculture, and I am passionate about securing a future in Agriculture for people from non-traditional and diverse backgrounds to increase the diversity of our Australian Ag workforce.
“No matter your background, your Ag Journey awaits.”
