Agriculture, aquaculture and animal husbandry have long been staples of life in the Southern Forests region – and have often been the reason for people to visit and travel to the area. Knowledge & pride in the industry has been a primary reason why small communities tend to buy local – from farmers markets and roadside stalls.
