#89 | Beyond the Pasture: Horsemanship Meets LandCare

This week, don’t miss it as Katja and Gillian discuss the difficulty of sponsoring visas for a young couple to work in remote Australia, calling the process overly complex and asking listeners with agriculture sponsorship experience for tips, while suggesting dairy farmers and abattoirs may have relevant visa experience. Katya shares updates on her upcoming Australian fiction romance book, due before Christmas, the first in a six-part family series set out west, and encourages pre-orders via a waitlist with personalized signed copies. They criticize “Farmer Wants a Wife” for using non-farmers and staged filming that misrepresents agriculture and misses educational opportunities. The episode then introduces an interview with Cassie Andrews, a Coonamble Landcare coordinator, about a May horsemanship clinic with Texas Star Performance Horses, linking horse welfare and safety to land management practices like rotational grazing, weed control, waterway protection, and community engagement through Landcare events.
