Are we about to experience the REAL cost of food?

When we got to NSW a couple of weeks ago, we thought about maybe checking out some different communities and farms, helping out here and there and learning stuff, so I updated my HelpX profile (similar to WWOOFing) and sent a few messages out to a couple of different Co-ops and Eco-villages. I was pretty skeptical about anyone being willing to take us on what with COVID19 and all and us coming from Victoria a ‘declared COVID Hotspot’ (shhhhhh! don't tell!).

Over the next day or so I received some replies but, surprisingly even got a few messages from people I hadn't contacted. They were reaching out to say that our profile looked great and they'd love us to come and help them out with their harvest, planting or shearing season, etc. etc. At first I was pretty chuffed! How cool is that? Dan and I must have such great skills and just be so amazing that people are actively SEEKING us out! 

And then, over the next couple of days the messages just kept trickling in, from all over the state, even from 100s of kms away. Soon it was a flood, so many messages, so many requests! What is going on? Why are we so popular? Are we really that great?And then I realised..... Nope. It's probably NOT personal. I'm probably NOT actually that great. (As much as I'd like to think so haha).

With bans on international tourists coming in, severely limited international migration and so many backpackers who were planning to be here for their year of "Work N Travel" either cutting their stay short or simply not coming at all, looks like a heap of farmers and homesteaders are pretty stuck. Where is all the cheap labour going to come from? It makes me realise just how frighteningly dependent our food system is on free or cheap labour from cash-strapped backpackers or new migrants desperate for some cash under the table, a roof over their heads and the promise of a second year visa. Who's going to bring in the harvest in the sweltering heat for just a couple of dollars an hour now?

I wonder if some of us freshly unemployed Australians will be taking up farm work to fill the gap...? (Somehow I doubt it!). And even if so, I wonder how much the cost of food will be once employers are forced to pay Australian workers a decent minimum wage. I suspect that what we think is the cost of food has actually been 'artificially' low for a very long time, and we might be about to see the REAL cost of food. Uh oh.

This business isn’t for ‘everyone’ but please understand ..... EVERYONE can do this business! 😀 We all love to have a few extra $$$ coming into our household Jobs are not secure these days ... Lay offs are real. Have something to fall back on! This is a business. When you work it like the business it is, the rewards can be BEYOND your WILDEST imagination!!! Want a peek at what I do? PM me. We travel a lot and we both work at diffetent places to help pay for our travels around our beautiful country #australia because we still have a "normal" life with a house and cars and bills... but the extra income I make with my internet business helps put fuel in our bus to help us with our adventures. I’ll show you what has made such a difference in my life 🙏❤️ . .. #workfromhome #internetbusiness #workntravel #extraincome #naturalproducts #stayathomemumsndads #livelife https://www.instagram.com/p/BsMaVZ0By6-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17mle03ih9ipd

Today is my 2 year anniversary of leaving Boulder for a nomadic / gypsy life in my camper “Arla”....I left with a plan of not having one.... to let go and see where the world and road would take me....I don’t think I would change a thing. I’ve seen beautiful rivers, lakes, mountains, sunsets, ocean views and trees bigger than what’s in your dreams. I’ve met so many wonderful people who shared their story with me and aloud me to share mine. I’ve had some lows but more highs.... everything from being in the first city to see the eclipse, whale watching from my camper door, having the redwoods to myself, having wonderful people take me in... to blowing out countless tires and waiting on the side of the road for hours, camper breakdowns, a near miss on a curvy road, and a mishap with a gas pump...just like every wonderful memory came with a smile so did the bad, as the road changes course and something positive and amazing came from each bump in the road. It’s a strange life, I’m sure I’ve been called crazy, I felt that way sometimes, but the whole point is to take advantage of the time we have and under the circumstances we are given....the thing is there are no rules!! We constantly put rules upon ourselves for no particular reason except the fact we are taught to do it our entire life. I’ve felt so much in the past of watching the world pass me by and waiting for something to just happen. I feel less of that now, the evolution is not yet complete, the battle to challenge myself is just in the beginning phases. I’ve learned a great deal about my neighbors and even more about myself. Certain people want to say our land is not great.... I beg to differ, all you have to do is put yourself into it to see that’s a falsity in the grandest form. I’m sure I’ve gained more from the folks I’ve encountered than they do from me. #traveler #travelingdesigner #travel #reflection #workntravel #rving #rvliving #rvlife #designer (at California)
