Farm Angels provide financial assistance, food hampers, care packs, and mental wellbeing support to primary producers.

Farm Angels was established as Drought Angels in 2014 to respond to the needs of primary producers impacted by prolonged drought, initially in Queensland. Since then, the organisation has expanded to provide financial assistance, food hampers, care packs, and mental wellbeing support to over 4,700 primary producers affected by all natural disasters (drought, flood, fire, and plagues) in over 1,300 communities across Australia.

The benefits of the personalized direct financial support are:

• Immediate access to funds
• Delivered through the reliable Mastercard platform
• Efficient delivery of funds
• The money circulates around town, supporting the entire community
• Every dollar spent in a rural community goes around approximately 6-7 times
• Discreet - our cards look like an everyday key card for privacy

Applicants must be registered Primary Producers to qualify for assistance.

The following is a non-exhaustive list of activities that are generally not considered to be ‘primary production’ activities:

• Agistment (where land is used solely for agistment)
• Beach worming (as worms are not considered to be ‘animals’ for primary production purposes.

• Lease of land, plant or machinery to an entity operating a primary production business.
• Live sheep exporting (as distinct from traditional farming operations)
• Kelp harvesting (if operations are limited to gathering storm cast kelp)
