The Farm Diaries is regular column written by Maggie MacKellar in our Graziher magazine. In the beginning it was an extract from Maggie's farm journal kept of a lambing season in Tasmania during the 2018/2019 drought, now it's morphed to be an account of her daily observations of the coming together of human and animal life on the farm. We are bringing Maggie’s words to life for Graziher’s second podcast, The Farm Diaries.

    Welcome to Graziher's 2nd podcast, The Farm Diaries based on our regular column written by Tasmanian based author Maggie MacKellar. In 2021, Graziher's editorial director Victoria Carey asked Maggie, an author and freelance writer she has always loved if she would pen a new column for the magazine and the The Farm Diaries was born. All about life on a fine wool Merino farm on Tasmania's east coast , Victoria knew that Graziher readers would also have read Maggie's memoirs that laid bare the grief she felt at losing loved ones and the challenges of starting life anew. The Farm Diaries started out as an extract from Maggie's farm journal that she kept during a lambing season of 2018/2019 and has become an account of daily observations of life on the farm and now we are turning the written word into the spoken work through this podcast. The Farm Diaries will be release on a Wednesday for the next six weeks with thanks to our sponsor Blundstone. Mid way through 2023 Maggie's work will be published by Penguin Books as her latest book, Graft.
