19. Myfanwy Alexander - Penmark Farms

In this episode Becks catches up with Myfanwy Alexander, a contract milker from Duntroon as we launch into our first episode of Season 2!

In this episode we discuss Myfanwy’s path into farming, the low-hanging sustainability fruit that she has put into practice and the crucial role that team management plays in sustainability.

This season has a slightly different flavour, each week Becks will be discussing a different farming system from a variety of industries within of our food and fibre sector. We will then jump in at the end and discuss how multiple sustainable development goals integrate within this farming system. So enjoy our first episode of season two of The Whole Story Podcast!

Hosted by Becks Smith, a farmer, vet, social entrepreneur and mother to three young girls, this is a podcast inspiring holistic sustainability in agriculture in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals.

Each week we discuss the Goals(SDGs) and talk to someone making progress towards them within agriculture.
We will talk about people’s funny on-farm stories, their views on the opportunities for sustainability in agriculture, and every one of them will leave us with a practical take-home sustainability tip!
