Hoodies 22 has so far been a great success! Thank you to everyone that has read it, downloaded it and shared it! It sounds corny, but some of the things outside of mainstream media and the norms of publishing do make a difference and I genuinely feel that Hoodies is one of those things. We do indeed have a way to go, but with nearly two years of publications under our belt we are more than ever on the right track.

With any kind of voice comes the responsibility to use that voice the right way, for the betterment of society as a whole, so with that in mind the next issue of Hoodies is going to be dedicated to our farmers. The men and women who are the life blood of this country and who now need our help to survive. With the Victorian government imposing yet more financial burdens on the struggling sector and with supermarkets about to go into a price war, farmers who are already dealing with drought are now in need of our help.

So with that in mind I need your help to connect me to as many farmers, companies organisations and people who work in and or support agriculture in this country. I know someone like Robert Fraser will be onboard but if you know of anyone that would be willing to be involved in putting this next issue together please email me at ben.logan@stafffinder.com.au or direct message me on here.

At the height of the COVID crisis Ronnie Di Stasio reminded me that we needed to look after our farmers and we sort of did, but now more than ever they need our help and it’s time we took up the call.

As ever please keep sharing Hoodies magazine and Issue 23 will be out in June in which we will be talking all things farming!
