Opening up their farms
to the general public this month farmers across the country are
working with the charity LEAF (Linking Environment And Farming) to
host Open Farm Sunday.
LEAF Open Farm Sunday,
managed by LEAF, is one of the farming industry’s biggest success
stories. Since the first Open Farm Sunday in 2006, over 1500 farmers
across the UK have opened their gates and welcomed 1.8 million people
onto their farm for one Sunday each year.
It is a fantastic
opportunity for everyone, young and old, to discover at first hand
what it means to be a farmer and the fabulous work they do producing
our food, enhancing the countryside and all the goods and services
farmers provide.
