While Archie is enjoying some well earned annual leave the Diesel Puppies have taken over his kennel 😳 we need to move them along before he gets back!

Simply spend $600 on Gallagher electric fencing products before October 2026 and one of these cuties goes home with you! You can even have your pick of the litter. Get in quick once they’re gone, they’re gone.

🌾 SA farmers are heading into seeding under enormous pressure 🌾

While recent rains across parts of the state are welcome, they also signal the start of another demanding season — with rising costs, fuel and fertiliser uncertainties weighing heavily on many.

In response, psychologist and farmer Steph Schmidt has launched “What the F? — Practical Strategies for the Season We’re In” — a four-session online series designed specifically for SA primary producers and those who support them.

Funded through the South Australian Government’s $117M Drought Support package, this initiative is about real, practical support — not therapy sessions, but tools you can actually use.

🧠 Sessions will cover:
• You — supporting your own wellbeing
• Relationships — navigating pressure at home and work
• Business — making decisions in tough conditions
• Supporting Others — strengthening community around you

📅 Running 15 April – 8 May
✔️ Fridays 10–11am
✔️ Wednesdays 7:30–8:30pm

💛 Pay what you can:
$0, $15 per session or $50 for the full series

Open to farmers, advisors, agronomists, service providers and anyone connected to agriculture.

If this season is already feeling heavy — this is a great opportunity to access practical support and strategies.

Murray Bridge copped a sneaky little sprinkle overnight 🌧️

Rain gauge finally had something to do… thought it had retired there for a while 😅

So, how much did everyone else score in their gauge? Or was it just enough to dirty the car and call it a day?
