@thefarmatbyronbay has been so supportive of Byron Youth Service and has given our groups tours for three years running. It is always a highlight of our year. So lovely to see the young people light up around the animals and soak in the possibilities of ethical and sustainable business models. Thank you!! #youngpeoplematter #thefarmatbyronbay #organicfarming #realeducation

We are so fortunate to have the support of the local community. A few weeks ago we had a lovely day out to @thefarmatbyronbay and were lucky enough to be fed delicious quiches and portugese tarts by @thebreadsocial. Our tummies were almost as full as our hearts! #blessed #youngpeoplematter #sustainablebusiness #ethicalbusiness #supportingyouth #organicfarming #innovation #farmfreshbyronbay

Homelessness is a big issue in Byron and surrounds. We discussed the issue with Christian as part of the Beach Sleepers program, using creativity to explore what it means to be homeless and what causes homelessness. #youngpeoplematter #beachsleepers

We had Kareem and Lucy from UN Youth Australia come and get the boy's lowdown on what needs to change in our society. Kareem will take their ideas to the powers that be and petition them to CHANGE. Alot of passion for reinventing the education system. We were really happy to be involved in this and thanks heaps to #unyouthaustralia for the opportunity. #youngpeoplematter
