* Robert F Kennedy Jnr Commends RegenAG RegenAG's Lisa Heenan recently
caught up with none other than Robert F Kennedy Jnr to chat about our
efforts with the workshop series. Bobby is a highly active campaigner for
many of the issues we're addressing and commended the workshops series as
the *'big solution'* in providing a successful and profitable alternative to
industral farming. Watch the YouTube Segment Joel Salatin's Recent
Australian Visit If you've been living under a rock lately, you might be
forgiven for not recognising Joel Salatin's name. Now probably the world' s
most famous farmer, Joel was prominently featured in two recent food
industry documentaries; the uplifting Fresh
<http://www.freshthemovie.com/>and the just released Academy Nominated
Food
Inc. <http://www.foodincmovie.com/> Joel is a remarkably successful farmer
and also an author of seven farming books including, *You Can Farm, Salad
Bar Beef, Pastured Poultry Profits* & *Everything I Want To Do Is Illegal*.

In advance of his tour of Australia & New Zealand with
RegenAG<http://www.regenag.com/workshops/polyface/>,
Joel Salatin recently visited Victoria for the Harvest Festival in
Daylesford. His presence generated a flurry of media interest with two
national television
appearences<http://www.regenag.com/media/press-stories/>(Channel
Nine's TODAY show and ABC Landline), along with radio interviews
and a bunch of newspaper
articles<http://www.regenag.com/media/press-stories/>Consistent with
the media interest, the attendance records at his various
talks well exceeded expectations. On the final day, over 250 people showed
up, doubling expectations. Spend Two Full Days with Joel Salatin Joel is
returning in Nov/Dec for the final workshops in the 2010 RegenAG Series Local
Farms & Community <http://www.regenag.com/workshops/polyface/>. *Touring
TAS, VIC, ACT, NSW, QLD & NZ.* Over two information packed days Joel will
take us through his entire family farm operation from the production of
pastured poultry (eggs, broilers, turkeys), salad bar beef, pigaerator pork,
forage-based rabbits & forestry products through to the relationship
marketing approach his family business has developed that has made Polyface
Farm the internationally recognised, and strictly local farm it is today.

*Book early to avoid disappointment! Booking instructions
here.<http://www.regenag.com/workshops/polyface/>
* The FarmReady Re-embursement Scheme Fortunately, the Australian Federal
Govenment, through the FarmReady scheme <http://www.regenag.com/farmready/>,
supports this initiative by offering farmers, their family members,
indigenous land managers and professional farm managers a *simple
re-embursement system* that offers up to $1500 per year for attendance in
approved workshops. Additional finacial assistence is provided for
childcare, travel and accomodation .



*** All RegenAG workshops are FarmReady Approved *** Let's Reach All The
Farmers We Can - Together! As a group of independant farmers and educators,
we've put this series together as a toolkit for farmers looking to restore
the vitality and health of not just their farms and profits, but also their
dignity and place as *respected indispensible members of the community*. The
food producers of this country deserve the upmost *respect and support*. So
our trainers have been carefully selected to offer the most *practical
down-to-earth essential skills* needed for regenerating soils, profits and
community.

Whatever your role in community is, please consider the importance of the
farmer and help us get this positive, action-oriented message out to as many
farmers as possible. Considering that carbon sequestration is essential to
the development of healthy topsoil, your solutions to climate change, food
supply & the future of our community lies in the management decisions of
farmers.
