Open Farm Sunday
10 June 2007
Open Farm Sunday is a national Open Farm Day co-ordinated by LEAF (Linking Environment And Farming) so people can hear and see the positive steps farmers are taking to look after the fabric of our countryside whilst producing safe, wholesome and affordable food.
Farms across the country will be open to the public on Sunday 10 June, which has been declared Open Farm Sunday. Organised by LEAF (www.leafuk.org) the day promises something for everyone, from nature trails to tractor rides, but most importantly the day will help to remind us all that farms do matter!
Literally hundreds of farms are inviting ramblers, birdwatchers, families and school children - in fact everyone and anyone who is interested in their environment - to come and find out more about how the food we eat is grown and produced.
So, make a date in the diary for 10 June 2007 for a great day out!
