I have a passion for the rural people and rural communities. Every person has a different story and it's my passion to be able to help them share their story with the rest of Australia through freelance journalism. It is also a great way to let other people know the current issues which face many rural communities across Australia.

For over three years Chris Gillies has been freelance writer and journalist working with some of Australia’s largest rural agencies. In 2016, he completed a Masters of Arts (Journalism) at Charles Sturt University to go along side his Bachelor of Rural Management from the University of Sydney.

Chris writes for a US magazine on Australian grain supply chain issues, as well as branded content for Australian agribusiness with focus on horticulture, dairy and grains.

Jeanette Severs is a multi-award-winning journalist and photographer who specialises in creating national content, telling the stories of Australian agriculture. Her work crosses all commodities (horticulture, livestock, grains/cropping, dairy, pasture, fibre) and issues important to agriculture (agripolitics, biosecurity, water and irrigation, weather, property and financial analyses).
She also writes stories about boutique commodities; for example, heritage pigs, herbs, truffles, vineyards, biodynamic and organic agriculture.
Jeanette value-adds her work with an online presence, blogging about her assignments where applicable; and uses her blog, twitter and Facebook to link directly to her work when clients publish it online.
