Tasman farmers and orchardists struggling with flood recovery and mental health pressures
The strain and pressure of weeks of repairing their flood-damaged properties is starting to tell on farmers and orchardists in the Tasman district.
The events started two weeks ago and run through to Friday 19th September.
The events are a chance for rural people to come together, enjoy brunch, and connect with others who understand the unique challenges of life on the land.
"You don't have to register, and there are no speeches or presentations - just a warm welcome and some delicious food," says Wanda Leadbeater from the Trust.
Rural Support Waikato will be hosting brunch at local locations from Pollok to Tirohanga, with support from local networks and organisations.
