First Tuesday Young Farmers Meetings

What Makes This Session Special

Adults gather for these monthly young-farmers meetings to focus on practical skills and current topics in agriculture. Expect a relaxed evening of discussion, short presentations, and group conversation that helps build knowledge and connections in the farming sector. 🌱

The session suits anyone involved in or interested in rural life, with an emphasis on education and peer support. These monthly meetings take place on the first Tuesday evening of each month, giving regular opportunities to stay updated without needing to commit to weekly attendance.

Typical activities include hearing from guest speakers on farm management, sharing seasonal challenges, and exploring new techniques in a supportive setting. Participants often leave with fresh ideas they can apply directly on their properties or in their work.

• Practical talks on livestock, crops, and sustainability
• Peer networking with other adults in agriculture
• Skill-building discussions tailored to young farmers
• Seasonal updates relevant to Waikato conditions
• Opportunities to ask questions in a casual group format
• Light social time to strengthen local connections

Open to visitors as well as regular attendees, the format keeps things straightforward and useful for those balancing farm work with ongoing learning.
