Event One — Land & LivelihoodsTitle: The Future of Farming — Land & Livelihood Subtitle: A public conversation about soil, food and livelihoods Description: Presented by the VFF Peninsula Branch, The Future of Farming is a conversation festival about what's reshaping how the Mornington Peninsula farms — and who gets to keep farming here. Land & Livelihood is the first of two events in the series, focused on the hard conversations: green wedge zoning, peri-urban land-use pressure, data centres, farm diversification and succession, tourism, and the community's path forward. Seven forums, one day, straight talk. Seven forums across the day: Green Wedge: Intentions, Permitted Uses & Opportunities Farming in Peri-Urban Areas Diversification: Keeping Multi-Generational Farms Viable Data Centres: Design & Resource Competition Natural Capital, Landscape Health & Accountability Tourism & the Visitor Economy Community Voice and the Path Forward Followed by a networking event until 6.00pm
Each forum runs as a moderated panel of four expert speakers followed by open-floor Q&A, with written questions collected on arrival.
Who it's for: farmers and graziers, market gardeners and horticulturalists, agronomists and advisors, researchers and educators, planners and policymakers, and Green Wedge advocates.
