This past week we went on a fab farm tour of Druids Lodge, kindly hosted by Mike and Stuart. 🌾🐄

From watching their rotary parlour in action, to getting a look inside their Anaerobic Digestion plant, marvel at lots of big kit and shown the runnings of their game rearing, we had a wonderful evening! 🐣🪶

Thank you very much for having us!!

Keep your eyes out for next weeks meeting on the WhatsApp 📆

We’ve had a busy Spring at Young Farmers, so busy we forgot to post on here!! 🫣🌷☀️

Here is a snapshot of what our members got up to over the past few months 📸🤩🩵

Last week we got the chance to go fishing, kindly hosted by the Rowlands at Bulford Lakes 🐟🐟

From self defence classes with Adam from React Self Defence, to a wonderful tour by Nat at Bluestone Vineyard, there really has been something for everyone.🍇✨🥋We were kindly shown around the calf unit and dairy at Nunton Dairy early in the spring, had a super interesting talk and display from Wild Fish, an organisation working to promote the wild fish of UK rivers and their habitats, from beekeeping to lambing, we’ve had a look at all different sorts of farming this spring! And of course we did lots of prep for the WYFC County Rally day! 🐄🎨🌟🐟

A BIG thank you to all our wonderful hosts this spring, we have thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!!

If you’re interested in coming along to YFC, please ping us a message. There’s still lots planned for the rest of the YFC year before we take a break for harvest, so please do come along! 🩵☀️🌾
