Whether you're a regular Open Farm Sunday host or planning to take part for the first time this June, join us on 20th March for what promises to be an inspiring day.

Open Farm Sunday manager, Annabel Shackleton said "It's a brilliant opportunity for those joining us to meet likeminded farmers, cross pollinate ideas, learn from industry leading LEAF Education Specialists and PR experts, and go home with a renewed enthusiasm and confidence to welcome visitors onto their farm."

"We've listened to farmer feedback, and hope this event will offer the support needed to take the next steps to organising an amazing Open Farm Sunday event in June! At a time when public perception is so paramount, we're doing all we can to support farmers to showcase British farming and the fabulous work they are doing for the environment."

The day will consist of a series of talks and presentations from Annabel, alongside host farmers and sponsors, followed by a series of workshops to help farmers upskill in a variety of areas, and learn how they can weave the 2024 theme 'farming with nature' into their OFS events – from digital communications and marketing their events, making the most out of farm walks, to the endless possibilities of activities relating to soil, water, wildlife and biodiversity! There will also be drop-in Q&A sessions with the OFS team and experienced host farmers to answer those burning questions, helping to solve any OFS quandaries, and a chance to collect a selection of OFS resources.

The day is an opportunity not to miss - and the OFS team very much look forward to welcoming farmers to Bragborough Hall Business Centre on 20th March to talk all things Open Farm Sunday!
