Where to Eat a Parma in Sydney and Help Drought-Affected Farmers
Pubs across Sydney are donating money from each parma (or parmi) sold to helping drought-affected communities.
Australian farmers are currently doing it rough. Really rough. Early this week a 'Parma for a Farmer' campaign launched, encouraging pubs across the country to donate dollars from every parmigianas sold to charities helping drought-affected communities. Whether or not you agree it should be parma (or, really, parmi), it's a great and tasty campaign to get behind. Take note of these participating venues so that when your next parma craving hits, you can get a good feed and help out our neighbours in strife.
