Audio Player

Ex Cyclone Alfred has brought up rain, floods, and challenges in Southeast Queensland and Northern New South Wales, affecting not only families, but small businesses.

A dairy farm in Dorrigo, around 80kms west of Coffs Harbour, is one of many local businesses struggling after the torrential rains.

The only road connecting the mountain with the coast is closed and if the milk is not delivered, the farm could lose THOUSANDS of litres of milk, impacting the farm’s business and the nearby communities.
