Humans of Agriculture 17: HoA "Generation Ag" with Lavinia Wehr & Kayla Evans
G'day and welcome to Episode 17 of the Humans of Agriculture podcast! Welcome back to those of you loyal listeners and thanks for your support! For those of you joining for the first time, Humans of Agriculture is dedicated to discovering more about our food system from the people involved in it – chatting with people from all walks of life. Today we're doing things slightly differently and this week is a bit of a collaboration with two superstars that are growing the conversations in Australian ag, allllll the way from the west coast – which now more than ever seems a bloody long way away!
Similarly, but differently to us, Generation Ag is the masterpiece of two incredibly passionate and talented people that are building a community for anyone passionate about our primary industries. Their podcasts take a different tone and style to ours and if you're not familiar with their work, you better head on over and check out and they are well worth a listen. You can skip this weeks episode, or you can give it a listen but it’s a little bit about my story to date – which was fairly weird but I loved talking with them.
Today's duo is Kayla and Lavinia from Generation Ag. Kayla grew up on the Darling Downs in Queensland before joining the navy after school. She now lands on her feet with the Grain Industry Association in WA as program manager for the Career's in Grains project!
Lavinia is from a family farm North East of Esperance, she runs her own digital marketing business out of Perth and is secretary of AgConnectWA aiming to create more events for young people in ag and minimize the isolation for young farmers!
