Photographer Kim Storey’s ‘What does a farmer look like?’ is a series of images of and stories from Australian farmers designed to “bridge that gap between city and country”.
According to the author, many people living in the cities no longer have a link to a farm or know a farmer, which makes it so important to connect with them and show them what it’s all about.
“I’ve always wanted to publish a coffee table book of my photographs,” she said.
“The overall message from all the farmers photographed, has been that they enjoy the farm life and its challenges but are conscious that it is a business first.
“They work hard and gain real satisfaction by producing the best quality produce they can for people to enjoy.”
There will be a chance to meet the author and learn more about the book at Orange City Library at 5.30pm on Thursday, November 8.
It is a free event. Contact the library on 6393 8132 for more information.
