The Brookfarm Difference | The Path of Will Brook
Join us for an inspiring journey with Will Brook, CEO of Brookfarm, a generational family business deeply rooted in regenerative agriculture. Will shares the captivating story of his family's big move from Melbourne to Byron Bay, driven by their passion for macadamias and the dream of starting a business.
As we listen to Will's reflections on growing up in the area and experiencing life on the farm, we gain insight into the deep connection they've formed with the land. We hear about their commitment to the rainforest, with over 45,000 trees planted on their 96-acre farm, and we also get an intimate glimpse into Will's personal journey.
Despite initially dreaming of a music career, Will's path led him to embrace the family legacy, eventually becoming the CEO of Brookfarm. Tune in to discover the invaluable insights he gained along the way about business, navigating CEO responsibilities, and explaining the important role of farming in our lives.
