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

Sophie’s story is a testament to the tenacity of the human spirit and stands as a poignant reminder that even in the face of formidable challenges, happiness can be found again.
A born and bred western Queensland girl, Sophie was working at The Blue Heeler Pub in Kynuna in her early twenties. It was here, that her life would change forever. This is a love story, entwined with tragedy, and a new beginning.
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 released 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.

Samantha Armytage helped millions of Aussies wake up every day for eight years, as one of our most loved TV personalities and co-host of popular national breakfast show, Sunrise.
Known for her humour, her sharp journalistic sense and for being a down to earth straight shooter, Sam radiates this beautiful authenticity which can often be lost in the shine of TV land – something she puts down to her country roots and her connection to her family on the land.
Her 23 years in media has been extraordinary – covering historic moments like the Canberra Bushfires, Brisbane’s floods and the trials of the Bali 9 and Schapelle Corby in Bali. She’s reported from the East Timor conflict, the Cronulla riots and Christchurch Mosque massacre, as well as Michael Jackson’s funeral in LA, the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee in London and Meghan and Harry’s wedding in Windsor.
And then last year, in March 2021 she let the sun set on her Sunrise career – resigning from the top seat in TV to move to the Southern Highlands equine property she shares with her new husband, Richard Lavender.
If there’s anyone who understands the diversity of women who love the land, it’s today’s guest, Victoria Carey. V, as she’s known by those who work with her, has been in the media game for more than two decades, including 11 years as the editor in chief of Country Style, and is now at the editorial helm of Graziher Magazine.
Yet a life in journalism almost didn’t happen – with a teenage horse-mad Victoria so nearly signing up to work in a racing stable.
Emily Herbert interviewed V the day after she put the latest issue of Graziher to bed and the jubilation and satisfaction at seeing another gorgeous copy of the magazine on its way to the printers was obvious in her voice.
And what a magnificent segue to announce that the Spring issue of Graziher is now on sale! It’s an absolute corker of an edition to celebrate our bimonthly launch, with compelling stories of Australian women spanning the width and length of the country. In this issue, we really draw our attention to Women across the Ages – and the articles borne from it are stunning – from Stephanie Trethewey’s letter to her baby daughter Evie to the inspiring eighty-something matriarch still checking her Merinos every day.
