Our calls have been answered!
Help is on hand for our local strawberry growers who have been doing it extremely tough.
The Premier has just announced they will be committing $1 million to help strawberry growers and the industry stay on their feet.
The recent scare has had a crippling effect on our farmers with some weighing up their farming futures due to senseless and disgusting acts.
At the end of the day it’s about protecting each other and keeping everyone safe and that includes the lives of our growers.
Leader of the Opposition Deb Frecklington called on the State Government to deliver an assistance package for Queensland strawberry growers and her pleas, and those of many local farmers, have been met.
This is a huge win for Deb and everyone who pushed for this assistance but most importantly it’s a huge weight off our grower’s shoulders.
I will continue to support them and buy as many strawberries as I can eat and urge everyone in the community to do the same.
If you have any great recipes, please pass them on!
