The NSW Farmers Warren Branch is welcoming members — and anyone interested — to an afternoon of conversation, ideas and decision-making at the Warren Golf Club on Wednesday the 18th of February.
Things get underway with a public forum from 2.00pm, before rolling into the Branch Annual Meeting and General Meeting from 5.00pm.
Public forum – from 2.00pm
The public forum will include speakers and representatives from Tocal College, Local Land Services and NSW Farmers, sharing updates and perspectives relevant to local farming and the wider ag community.
The afternoon will also feature a keynote address from Darren Flanagan, a well-known motivational speaker who travels Australia sharing lessons on resilience, leadership and teamwork, drawn from his experience of the Beaconsfield mining disaster.
As a bonus, everyone who attends the forum will go into the draw to win a free NSW Farmers membership.
Have your say on the future of the Branch
The Warren Branch is keen to hear directly from members as it prepares its 2026–2027 Annual Strategic Plan (ASP). Members are encouraged to submit their top five issues or priorities for consideration.
This feedback helps shape what the Branch focuses on, the speakers it invites, and the actions and events it plans in the year ahead. The Strategic Plan is reviewed at the General Meeting following the Annual Meeting. You can submit your input when you register.
