There was storytelling at its finest when a group of local women gathered in Guyra on May 27th for the Telling Your Story workshop with author Annabelle Brayley.
“The day had a special feel,” said Elizabeth Rosser from Southern New England Landcare.
“Annabelle shared her experience and practical advice on how to shape and share personal stories, sparking thoughtful discussion and reflection among attendees,” she said.
Hosted by Women for Food and Fibre and proudly supported by Southern New England Landcare, the workshop created a welcoming space for women to explore the power of their personal and professional stories—particularly around the shared theme of regenerative agriculture.
The event brought together ten women from across the New England region who were eager to reflect on their experiences and learn how to express them with clarity and confidence.
Adding further depth to the day, Norann Voll from Danthonia near Inverell led a session on using photographs and social media to tell the story of her life and community.
“It was an honour to have Norann share how she communicates the day-to-day and deeper values of Danthonia through images and storytelling,” said Elizabeth.
Workshop participant Chris Hietbrink from Guyra described the day as “incredibly special,” adding, “how blessed we were to have such fabulously gifted presenters like Norann and Annabelle to inspire us all.”
Southern New England Landcare extends its sincere thanks to Annabelle, Norann, and all the participants who made the day so memorable—and to Women for Food and Fibre for bringing the idea to life.
