The Zone 1 event was held on Saturday at the Murwillumbah Civic Centre and was hosted by the Tweed River Agricultural Society.
Entrants were presented on stage and spoke about their passions and ambitions. They also highlighted current issues experienced in rural towns and agricultural industries, displaying their knowledge of their communities and advocating for change.
Ashleigh spoke eloquently and was a fine young ambassador for the local community in a very prestigious competition.
The successful entrants from Kyogle and Kempsey will now move forward to represent their area at the state finals in April at The Sydney Royal Easter Show.
The competition aims to find a young ambassador for rural NSW.

There is northing like carrying a book on your head to keep the head straight, the neck strong and the shoulders back. A deportment course could put Ashleigh Hartley in with a chance to be Miss Australia.
You show them girl.
