Welcome to the UPL Australia #OpenAg podcast series. We hope these podcasts will inspire you and open your mind to new ideas and new ways of dealing with the current challenges faced by everyone in Australian agriculture after the recent drought and Covid 19 restrictions.

She’s the creator, founder, and CEO of Sober in the Country, and organisation born out of Shanna’s own very real battle with alcohol dependency.
