Strathbogie Shire Residents

Join us for a FREE screening of the film "Just A Farmer" with guest speaker Rural Outreach Support Worker, Ivan Lister.

Just A Farmer is a heartfelt and powerful film that captures the resilience, struggles, and triumphs of rural life. Through an emotional yet inspiring narrative, the film sheds light on the challenges faced by farmers and their families—exploring themes of mental health, community support, and the unbreakable bond between people and the land they work on.

This is more than just a story—it’s a movement to bring awareness, spark important conversations, and celebrate the strength of rural communities.

Mental health in rural communities is often overlooked, and starting conversations can be tough. Just Farmer screenings provide a safe space to bring these issues to light and foster real connections.
