Australian Farmers: Telling Our StoryAuthor: Angie Asimus
Australian Farmers: Telling Our Story is hosted by television presenter and journalist, Angie Asimus and is powered by the National Farmers Federation. It's dedicated to connecting our wonderful farmers with health conscious consumers and ethically minded shoppers. Together, we can all learn more about the food we eat and the fibre we wear. This is your exclusive look behind the farm gate. As a country girl herself, Angie knows you'll love what you hear. From the freshest produce, to carbon neutral wool. What about female shearers and farms that give more to the land than they take in the battle against climate change? Is it possible to drought and flood proof your business through diversification so prices don't fluctuate so much at the supermarket? We tackle the most common misconceptions about life on the land and have many laughs along the way with some of the most memorable characters you could ever meet.

S4 Ep 26 - Harvest Her Power
Saturday, 20 December, 2025
All farmers wear many hats, but others wear more than they need to. From farming, to podcasting, being a mum and heralding rural women through a groundbreaking conference, my guest today is spreading an important message with her own unique story. Founder of Harvest Her Power, Katja Williams joins me now. Katja's favourite place on her farm is when the family enjoys picnics on the hill where you can see almost the whole of Orange. She became an ag-influencer by finding her own space and, starting her Instagram page over five years ago. Empowering rural women is important to Katja, which is why she launched the inaugural "Harvest Her Power" conference and what's in store for next year's event. The main audience for the conference is rural wives, and Katja shares some of the speakers who will be presenting. She is also a podcaster with The Ultimate Farm Wife, having spoken with countless women across the country and gathered many valuable insights. Katja has completed over 90 episodes of her podcast and shares tips and wisdom for women in rural communities. She helps families navigate the challenges of running a business together and shares advice based on her own experiences. The hardest part of navigating family relationships for Katja is balancing business and personal dynamics. She studied criminology and later decided to return to the country to work in agriculture and rural advocacy. What Katja loves most about life on the land is being together with family and creating core memories. The most unexpected thing to happen throughout the years. A common misconception about her work and rural life is that she is a "lady of leisure." Katja's ultimate dream for the future. We hope to see you back on the road soon, to learn more about how Australia grows on the next episode of Australian Farmers with Angie Asimus.
