What Future Do You Want?

"This farm is everything to us. We'll fight tooth and nail to keep it working."

Future Families is part of a larger project to explore what the future may hold for our families and communities. We welcome your point of view. Please Pick the Future of one of the families and and give us your opinion.

Each of our Future Casts tells a story of one fictional family and what their life could be like in 2031.  We're using these Future Casts to help plan Plunket's future. By imagining the needs of future families, we can improve the way we do things now, and in the future. For more information about the project click here.
