Now it respectively has 136,000 and 137,000 followers on social media.

For Laura Noonan from The Beauty Room at Warren the @buyfromthebush campaign had changed her business overnight.

"The Beauty Room is a little haven for rural women in my local area providing beauty treatments, fashion, homewares, gifts and as a result of the drought my business from suffering terribly," Miss Noonan said.

But after the launch of @buyfromthebush, Miss Noonan said she had inquiries from all over Australia.

"There is a buzz again in my shop, it's exciting to go to work," she said.

"It has been so good for morale on every level, the sense of isolation has shifted. It's a win win for everyone.

"I come from a farming family and it is truly heart-warming for them to see the positive connection this campaign has created between the city and the bush.

"There is hope again knowing people genuinely care."

The brainchild behind the campaign Grace Brennan has also created the @stayinthebush page to get people traveling to regional centres.

It includes stays like Faraway Domes - luxury dome accommodation created by graziers Jamie and Belinda Munsie.

Set on the Munsie's 9000 acre working beef and sheep property at Warialda, @farawaydomes offers guest first-class comfort with minimal carbon footprint.

Like most graziers in the north west, the Munsies have experienced the driest conditions in 100 years and knew they had to diversify their farming operation to safeguard the future of their family's property.

"The dry conditions have taken a toll on the district, but this project has brought our family together at one of the toughest times in our history on the property. It's also provided a good distraction from the dry conditions and given our family hope for the future," Belinda said.

It features a luxurious king size four poster bed, open plan living and kitchen area, private bathroom and four-meter high elevated deck with outdoor bath, the result is unlike anything the region has seen before.

"We have such a beautiful region and we're really excited to showcase this to visitors interested in escaping to the country and connecting with nature," Belinda said.
