Yarns in Barns: Tools for the Top Paddock - Kane Brisco

Be inspired by one of our brightest young farmers and learn his tools for thriving through the physical and mental strains of life on the land.

Kane Brisco overcame his past and the beliefs he held about himself to transform his life for the better. Now, through his Farm Fit Bootcamp, social media community and new book 'Tools for the Top Paddock' he’s reaching out to the most isolated corners of our rural communities and inspiring others to do the same.

In association with the East Coast Rural Support Trust, following their annual Rural Touch Rugby competition. A BBQ and cash bar will be available with proceeds supporting the work of the Trust.
