Farming for Food |
|
Raising awareness
of farming is one of the main reasons for the festival’s existence and a key
part of its success. This year Gerald Hodgson will be putting together
a brilliant Farming Display with activities for the young and old. The theme will be
"Farming for Food"; showing the public how
agriculture gives us what we take for granted, our food. |
