Student in the Spotlight 🔦 Meet Ben
“I’m deeply connected to agriculture, living on my family’s sheep and crop farm in Lake Bolac. I work on the farm year-round every day when I’m not at school. I’m outside with the dogs, doing sheep work, fencing, on the evacuator, or in the tractor. Farming is a big part of my life”.
