The legend of the iconic Country Women Association makes up the threads of the cloth that is worn (and honoured and respected) by many, if not all the women in rural Australia. As a rural journalist, some of the stories told to me by women of the CWA reflect what I consider to be ‘real acts of kindness and camaraderie’ in some of the most isolated communities in Australia. They are my favourites. And for my guest today, author Liz Harfull there’s a similar pull to explore and celebrate the mighty women of the CWA. This series of Company is kindly sponsored by the CWA of NSW. This year, it's celebrating its 100 year anniversary in NSW. To honour all that has been and gone within the organisation Liz Harfull has been commissioned to write the book – 'Women Who Changed Country Australia.’ Liz spoke to me from her lovely old cottage in the Adelaide Hills, where we started our conversation reliving her childhood as the daughter of a dairy farmer in south east South Australia.
