Today members of Park Farm - Thorney and ourselves made some preparations for Open Farm and Vintage Weekend 2027.
We fired up Park Farm's International and binder to make some shoves of wheat for the threshing display. Our members then literally "pitched" in clearing the shoves off the field into trailers. All done just before it got to 30°C.
Thank you everyone for your help.

A few more photos from Open Farm & Vintage Weekend 2026, with a congratulations and a massive thank you.
Congratulations to Roy and Richard Hales for being awarded the Rose Farm award. This is in recognition for their hard work over many years, giving their time for free to help put on the event.
Our thanks goes to Michael Sly and Park Farm - Thorney for again giving us the opportunity to help put on this fantastic event. It allows us to demonstrate to the general public farming methods and techniques of yesteryear, help raise funds for air ambulance and other local charities and allows our members to work their machinery.
Here's to the next 20 years of Open Farm!
