How Sydney beach kid, Jack Berne, raised over $2.1 million for Aussie Farmers

Maybe you've heard of the A Fiver for a Farmer founder, Jack Berne, but if you haven't, let us introduce you to this legend. 

When Jack was 10, he saw a news story about just how bad the droughts were for farmers in Australia, and from his home in the Northern Beaches, he decided to do something. 

Four years later, Jack's in high school and he's still championing Aussie Farmers through his foundation, Jack's Mates. Whether he's raising money at schools through dress up days, spreading the word on TV or on the radio, visiting fire, drought, or flood affected farms, or just being a 14 year old, Jack is certainly motivated to make a difference. 

On this weeks episode we talk all things:

• Jack's background 
• The origin of Fiver for a Farmer
• What motivated him, as a boy from the coast, to get involved with Aussie ag
• Jack's first time on a working farm in Molong
• What Jack's journey has been like for his own family
• How meeting farmers and going on farms changed Jack's perceptions
• His dream job

We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did.
