#43 - A Tomorrow Of Togetherness | Jade Miles [Black Barn Farm]
In this episode I’m joined by Jade Miles, co-founder of Black Barn Farm in north-east Victoria — a thriving u-pick orchard and learning space where she and her family live out the values of what she calls Futuresteading: living like tomorrow matters.We talk about the growing ache so many of us feel — that sense of disconnection from land, food, and community — and how small, intentional choices can help us find our way back. Jade shares stories from her life on the farm, what it means to live regeneratively, and why ritual, belonging and slowing down matter more than ever.It’s a gentle, grounding conversation about remembering our place in nature and rebuilding the threads that hold us to each other and the earth.Follow Jade HERE:https://linktr.ee/blackbarnfarmfuturesteadinghttps://www.instagram.com/black_barn_farm/NEW Intermediate Organic Growers Guide:https://www.theshedorganics.com.au/product-page/ultimate-intermediate-guide-to-growing-organic#1 Blend Fertiliser:https://www.theshedorganics.com.au/product-page/1-blend-complete-organic-fertiliser-mixFREE Beginners Organic Growers Guide:https://www.theshedorganics.com.au/product-page/ultimate-beginner-s-guide-to-growing-organic __________________________________________________________Follow The Shed Organics HERE!Website: https://www.theshedorganics.com.auFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/theshedorganicsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theshedorganicsYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheShedOrganicsTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theshedorganicsTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/theshedorganicsLinkedIn: https://au.linkedin.com/in/jordan-alexander-794469333

This week we are joined by the powerful Jessie Reimers, a beacon of light in a world that can seem overwhelming in our current climate. Jessie shares her story of regaining her own health after a plethora of illnesses at an early age. After turning her own health around, she focused on helping others and successfully brought about systemic change to our very own heart foundation classification. We speak on the current Fire Ant Eradication Program that is underway here in QLD and the unfortunate impact that this blanket chemical usage is having on our ecosystems, our wildlife, pets and our own families.
