Workshops and educational talks from guest speakers will influence and encourage people to introduce farming into their lifestyle, whether that’s growing your own vegetables, giving beekeeping a go or utilising waste through the power of composting.
There’s something for everyone from 10am til 4pm at The Farm on Sunday including ferret racing, wool spinning, a tractor display, apple press, welly wanging, animal art competitions and sheep shearing.
There will also be an in-house tasting tent, chilli tunnel, pop-up gin tent and tasting and demonstration tents.
