Married to the Land

From Vet to Visionary Unveiling the Artistry and Advocacy of Miss Vet


Listen Later

Welcome Jill Kelly to the podcast. For over a decade, Jill has served as a district vet for Local Land Services in Western NSW, providing invaluable support to farmers with ruminant nutrition, welfare, and farm sustainability. When she's not dissecting sheep carcasses, Jill unleashes her creative side as a painter, known by the handle Miss Vet.


The phrase, "When the going gets tough, the tough get going," truly embodies Jill's spirit. During the drought in 2011, while the #BuyFromTheBush Campaign gained recognition, Jill initiated a personal project called the Drought Smoko. This effort, born out of necessity, saw her baking a cake every Tuesday and spending the morning discussing livestock management topics with local farmers, offering much-needed support and camaraderie during tough times.


Jill is a wealth of knowledge and is going to cover a lot in this conversation.
