Young Victorian farmers are being invited to come together for farm finance workshops at a number of locations, as well as to network and ask questions.
Agriculture Victoria young farmer coordinator Sarah Wallis said it was exciting to offer the farm finance sessions in-person after two years of online events due to COVID-19 restrictions.

"This year it's about coming together, being together and interacting with our financial specialists to ask those burning finance questions in a safe space," Ms Wallis said.
"Our take on this is to provide the kind of experts at these workshops who can cut through the 'bank speak' and enable young farmers to be well prepared when applying for financing."
