Farmers invited to open for day

Linking Environment and Farming (LEAF) is calling on farmers to take part in Open Farm Sunday.

It will be giving information about this at roadshows around the country, including at Frontier Agriculture in Sandy.

The roadshow will provide an opportunity for farmers to meet and exchange ideas and experiences.

Annabel Shackleton, Open Farm Sunday manager, said: “So many fantastic Open Farm Sunday events have taken place over the past eight years and we want to bring experienced and new host farmers together to share best practice as well as offering the latest advice and top tips on how to put on engaging events.

“It is a fantastic opportunity for farmers to connect with the public, tell their story, and showcase all that is best about British farming and food.”

Open farm Sunday this year is on June 8.

The roadshow in Sandy will be on Wednesday (February 26) from 2pm to 5pm.
