We
were once again blessed with great weather for our annual event Open Farm
Sunday. The event is part of a national campaign to educate people about
farming and where our food comes from. Highlights of our event were the display
of our machinery, sheep shearing, pedal tractors for our younger visitors and
tours of our arable fields in our new trailer.

Trailer
tours
The
trailer is pulled by the late 7th Earl’s first tractor he brought
when he returned from South Africa to look after Holkham Estate in 1973.
Compared to modern machines and old ploughs you can definitely see how farming
has evolved and become a lot more technical.
We are
very excited to offer our visiting schools the option of taking a trailer tour
to learn more about where our food comes from and the crops which Holkham
Farming Company grows.
