It's been a great year for farmers in the region and to top it all off, today is National Agriculture Day.
The day is dedicated to Australian agriculture and the people behind it, the farmers.
NSW Farmers Goulburn Branch Chair Margaret Cameron said the day was all about the farmers.
"We're so pleased we got a better season than previous years and rural areas have been also been considered in the state budget," Ms Cameron said.
Although farmers in the region were pretty much unaffected by the COVID-19 pandemic, others were not so lucky.
"In some areas, there have been issues with shearing and contracting," Ms Cameron said.
While there were no official celebrations this year, there were more than 150 events registered.
Some were also involved in an AgDay Bake Off where people shared their best home made lamingtons to social media.
