18th October: FB LIVE CHAT, Naked Farmer!
We have a VERY exciting guest for October's Infobus:
Ben Brooksby, aka The Naked Farmer!
Join us on the 18th of October at 7pm AEDT
For the first time ever, we will hosting this event as a Live Chat on Facebook, between myself, and Ben!
This way you get to see the faces, hear the voices, and interact!
This is our first time doing this, so we are excited to learn and see how it goes.
You will be able to ask questions , and be able to interact in real time, while we are chatting.
So who is this Naked Farmer and why is he nude???
His name is Ben, and he has decided to do something to tackle the stigma surrounding mental health!
Ben reckons that "it takes guts to get your gear off as it takes guts to talk about mental health."
Please keep to the guidelines.
Don't forget to tune in!
Submit your questions here to be asked on the night! They could be about Ben, his work, this project, mental health, farming... whatever!
... was very surprised to learn it was about mental health 😂
pretty ! @lokifish okay so my phone is messing up and is barely letting me type 😞
have you heard of the naked farmer ?
nope !
im not from a rural area - city gal ! and i don’t know any farmers, unless you count some New Zealanders who have a lavander farm but they’re aren’t “farmers”.
How's everyone feeling after the chat? Was there anything in particular that resonated with you all?
Hey everyone!! @lokifish @Bee@litgym@annabethxchase@ecla34
Thanks for watching! That was super fun 
How awesome is the stuff Ben's doing??
Having guys speak up about mental health is so important!
You can still watch the chat later if you missed it - it will be published on our FB page (if it isn't already) .
It seems obvious but I didn't think of the fact that he wouldn't be allowed to advertise on social media due to nudity... that just makes the project's success even more incredible 😄
I'm right on the veeeeeeeery of edge of what can vaguely be considered Melbourne. I therefore feel a bit weird saying that I'm from rural Australia, but the fact is that I live off a dirt road 😛
My in laws also live on about 20 acres of farmland, so... does that count? 😄
A few photos of my in law's place, complete with horses and kangaroos 😛
I found a Facebook post from my sister... Millie is always OBSESSED with the kangaroos 😂
Loving the responses so far! @lokifish those pictures are epic
Time for question two!
Had you heard of the Naked Farmer before this chat?
Had you heard of the Naked Farmer before this chat?
I think I may have heard it, but I didn't know about it if that makes sense...

)
