Southern New England Landcare is pleased to welcome Elizabeth Rosser to the team as the new Project Officer - Sustainable Agriculture.

Elizabeth grew up in South Western Queensland, having spent her early childhood in Quilpie and then primary school years at Goodooga before moving to Brisbane to complete her schooling.
After finishing school, Elizabeth studied a Bachelor of Nursing at the University of Southern Queensland before the call to go west took her to Cunnamulla as a Governess. From there, she returned to her studies but to a dual degree in Agribusiness and Applied Science (Production Animals) at the University of Queensland.

Since then, Elizabeth has worked across Southern Australia in a variety of industries from rural consultancy, feedlots, beef cattle, free range egg production and a very short stint in a dairy. Her favourite role to date has been as a Project Officer for Neighbourhood Houses Tasmania on King Island. This is where she discovered a love of project management and facilitation while working closely alongside community.

In 2021, Elizabeth moved to the New England, with her husband and young family, to manage a beef cattle trading enterprise near Ben Lomond. Elizabeth and her husband run the property using regenerative principals and have a deep love of learning, people and community. Elizabeth is enthusiastic about her new role as the Sustainable Agriculture- Project Officer with SNEL as this allows her to stretch her wings and apply learning from on farm to work and back again.
