Meet Our Makers

In the Winter of 2020, I went on a road trip with Running Hare Films to checkin with my suppliers. I wanted to see how their businesses were faring after the recent drought, bushfires, floods and COVID-19 restrictions.

Gathered Goods is committed to supporting regional makers and creators. Here are a few of their stories.
