The first 5 months of the Good Food Voucher program has been a huge success, we've been blown away by the new connections we've made and the uptake in our community ๐Ÿฅฆ๐Ÿฅฆ

With demand for food relief increasing, the need for a local and personalised response is also growing ๐Ÿ“ˆ

Farm Raiser is a grassroots organisation, we fund the farm operations through selling our produce - so being able to provide food relief and get paid for our produce means we can support our community and keep the lights on.

By donating to the program you can support local families and local farmers.

You can make a tax deductible donation via the link in our bio ๐Ÿ”—
