Out with the old and in with the new! 👏🌱

Our old broken bench has been replaced with a brand new recycled bottle bench, giving the outdoor area a fresh new look while helping the environment too ♻️

A big well done to Jacob and Chris, who spent time building and installing the bench themselves — great teamwork and a brilliant result! 🔨

Your hard work, dedication and determination are really paying off. Keep smashing it, Jacob! 🌟

Managing Unpredictable Farm Earnings 🐑🌾🐄

Agricultural income rarely follows a steady pattern. Many farmers see profits rise and fall significantly from one year to the next, often due to factors beyond their control.

Weather conditions, disease outbreaks, fluctuating market prices for products such as milk, volatile costs for essentials like feed, fuel, and fertiliser, and changes in government policy all contribute to this uncertainty.

Because of this instability, farmers’ averaging is a tax relief mechanism designed to smooth profits over time. When applied effectively, it can reduce tax liabilities and improve cashflow stability.
