set up your own free range farm

 There is still a massive shortage of genuine free range egg farms across Australia.

Following strong demand for information about setting up freerange farms an eBook on how to set up a sustainable free range farm is available from us.

Small, ethical and sustainable farm businesses can be established to service local communities.

A good starting point is reading our eBook. Detailed information is provided about things like shed requirements, food safety, egg packaging and labelling.

When deciding to set up a free range egg farm, take the time to plan it properly. Find out the zoning of the land and talk to the Council planning department about their requirements. It’s also worth contacting the State Department of Agriculture. You can find on-line resources in most states. Once that is sorted, talk to your Council Environmental Health Department about any specific requirements they have before you get underway.

Details from us at Freeranger Eggs via our facebook page or by email freeranger@dcsi.net.au

cyber attacks on the food industry don't usually hit small producers

 

Cyber attacks on many businesses including those in primary production are being taken seriously because of the threat to food supplies.
