Hawkesbury Eco Hour

This week on the Hawkesbury Eco Hour podcast, we head into the orchards of Bilpin to speak with organic farmer Aaron Brocken, a grower who's seen the land at its best, its toughest and everything in between.

With recent headlines highlighting poor fruit set, unusual flowering patterns and worries about pollination across the Bilpin region, Aaron shares his on-farm perspective.

Aaron also shares what keeps him farming, the human side of working with nature, and what the community can do to support Hawkesbury's local growers.

A thoughtful, honest and hopeful conversation from one of Bilpin's most respected organic farmers.
