Thanks to staff manager Gancho , wife Christine and son James we today had a major rewarding event for our valued Seasonal workers who we require next year for our valued Fruit Production business.
Bright sunshine/long shadows in #herefordshire today for #blackcurrant planting @WindmillHFruits @AntSnell @FarmersWeekly @herefordtimes @bbcweather
That’s nearing the end of our week in The Outer Hebrides, best holiday for beautiful beaches, incredible scenery, wildlife spotting and of course keeping the dogs entertained!
Berneray West beach and North Uist coastline have been the most incredible experience today #theouterhebrides
Another beach day in The Outer Hebrides, all a bit tired now #Horgabost beach #IsleofHarris

1/3 I have been reading about a previous meeting of farmers which was a great demonstration organised by @NFUtweets that has similarities to this week. @ProagriLtd @loosecollie @FarmersWeekly
2/3 A huge gathering that was held in 1930; located at Parker’s Piece in Cambridge during the start of what became The Great Depression.
It was described by Adrian Bell, a young farmer, in his 1931 book Silver Ley as a few exerts and a photo of the time show:
3/3 Led by my Great Grandmother Annie’s brother, Captain Ted Morris, a Sawbridgeworth farmer who spoke to the gathering while he was @NFUtweets president that year.
It was followed by a change in government and nationalisation of industries…. #farming #godspeedtheplough
This little box tells a #BonfireNight tale - given to my grandfather 80 years ago for pulling a man out of a car crash outside Park Farm at Slip End, Baldock, he drove him home to his mother, who had lost her 3 other sons in #WW2 Turned out it was the local @Conservatives MP !!
A collection of pictures showing the 6 months from nursery to the store for the @WindmillHFruits @AntSnell @Tesco @LEAF_Farming late season raspberries grown with the great guidance of the @driscollsberry team #IPM #herefordshire
