This special DairyPod feature episode takes a look back on 25 years of Gardiner Foundation, and the initiatives that have supported the dairy industry and farming communities. Gardiner Foundation’s Communications Manager, Meghan Lodwick, is in conversation with CEO Allan Cameron, as they explore the history of the foundation, how investments are prioritised, the impact it’s had to date and what comes next.

Meghan and Allan also discuss industry partnerships, including with Dairy Australia, to help bring initiatives to life, like Picasso Cows, Cows Create Careers and Our Farm Our Plan (OFOP) - providing dairy farmers and communities with more opportunities to connect and grow.
