Reconnecting our communities will be theme of a new lifestyle event to be hosted by the Henty Machinery Field Days Cooperative Ltd on the weekend of March 12, 2022.

“Hello Henty” is proudly supported by Telstra and is set to welcome all visitors back to the field days site and the region.

Henty Machinery Field Days Co-operative has more than 55 years experience in organising what has grown into one of the largest agricultural events in Australia.

HMFD chief executive officer Belinda Anderson said Hello Henty aimed to reconnect regional communities with the events industry and businesses in a COVID safe environment.

“Additionally, Hello Henty aims to connect the audience with the regional community of Henty, Greater Hume Council and the wider Riverina/north-east Victoria regions,” Mrs Anderson said.

Visitors to Hello Henty will enjoy a feast of music and entertainment on the main stage including local, new and emerging artists.  Organisers will also be searching for a drawcard act.

They will be able to taste and procure gourmet food and wine from the Greater Hume Council and the wider Riverina/north-east Victoria regions and beyond.

Mrs Anderson said there will be information for visitors on markets, tourism, accommodation, events and destinations in southern NSW and north-east Victoria.

“Demonstrations will showcase what our regional lifestyle, local clubs and organisations have to offer,” she said.

“We are excited to host this brand-new lifestyle event for the region with the support of Telstra and see Hello Henty complementing the annual Henty Machinery Field Days planned for September 20-22, 2022.”
