Pay It Forward Farmer Pack – Supporting the Families Who Feed Australia
They spend their lives feeding us. Now it's our turn to put food on their tables.
Behind every Australian farm is a family.
Families who work through drought, rising costs, unpredictable seasons and the everyday challenges of producing the food we all depend on.
Sometimes, even the people who grow our food need a little support themselves.
At Woodlane Pantry, we believe that when farming families are doing it tough, we all have a role to play in supporting them.
That's why we've created our Pay It Forward Farmer Pack, in partnership with the Rural Business Support Relief Fund.
When you purchase this pack, you're not buying food for yourself. You're providing a thoughtful selection of delicious, shelf-stable food for a South Australian farming family experiencing hardship.
A practical gesture of kindness. A reminder that their community cares.
What's Inside Your Pay It Forward Farmer Pack?
Each donated pack contains five Woodlane Pantry food products:
🍲 Apricot Curry – A comforting, flavourful meal made with real ingredients.
🍚 Chow Mein – A delicious rice-based meal packed with familiar savoury flavours.
🥕 Savoury Rice – A versatile, satisfying meal that can be enjoyed on its own or with added protein.
🍑 Apricot Rice Pudding – A comforting sweet treat, because everyone deserves a little something special.
🍎 Dried Apple Snacks – A convenient, naturally fruity snack to enjoy throughout the day.
Our products are carefully dried to create convenient, shelf-stable foods that are easy to store and prepare.
Good food, made with care, for families who deserve our support.

Why Farming Families Need Our Support
Australian farmers face challenges that are often beyond their control.
Drought, unpredictable weather, increasing production costs and financial pressures can place enormous strain on farming businesses and the families behind them.
Through its work with farming communities, Rural Business Support understands the challenges these families face.
Our Pay It Forward Farmer Pack offers a small but meaningful gesture of practical support.
It won't solve every challenge, but it can help put food in the pantry and remind a family that they're not facing those challenges alone.
Supporting Farmers Is Part of Who We Are
At Woodlane Pantry, supporting Australian farmers is at the heart of everything we do.
We work to create value from Australian-grown produce, including fruit and vegetables that might otherwise go to waste.
We believe farmers deserve to be paid for what they grow, regardless of whether their produce meets traditional retail appearance standards.
Our Pay It Forward Farmer Pack extends that commitment beyond the farm gate.
It's another way to stand alongside the people who work so hard to feed our communities.
Because supporting farmers means supporting the families behind the farms, too.
A Meaningful Way to Give Back
The Pay It Forward Farmer Pack is perfect for:
-
Individuals wanting to support Australian farming families
-
Businesses looking for a meaningful way to give back
-
Community groups and service clubs
-
Families teaching children the importance of kindness and generosity
-
Anyone wanting to make a practical contribution during difficult farming seasons
Whether you purchase one pack or several, your support helps us reach more farming families.
