Spot has been putting her mud pack on this weekend 🙄

Great to see the cows still enjoying the grazing season, probably because the drought meant they didn’t really have a grazing season 😩

Normally there’s some serious sulking to stay in the sheds by now 😜

Girls happy to be going in for milking this afternoon 😎

Today is #Farm24 - a national effort to tell the farming story

Here’s some pics of my day milking cows, checking youngstock, watering veg & so much more

Being a farmer is the best job in the world, it’s totally addictive #farming

#Farm24

It’s #Farm24 today – a celebration of British farming! For 24 hours, farmers are sharing what real life on a British farm looks like.

If you want a real taste of tradition, community, and countryside, check out the wide range of agricultural shows coming up this summer.

Missed the #farmwatch #farm24 bbc have been doing mainly due to the fact we've got all the wheat safely in the shed now this year! Still grading the daffodil bulbs though!

We’re proud to back #Farm24 -- a national celebration of the hardworking farmers & growers at the heart of our food system.

Farmers are leading the way in climate action by reducing GHG emissions, improving soil health & increasing resilience.

We’re here to support them every step of the way.👏

On #Farm24 I want to say thank you to farmers in Westmorland and beyond for everything you do.

From the food on our plates to the wonderful landscapes that surround us, I am incredibly grateful for your tireless hard work.

It's my utter privilege to fight for you in Westminster

This morning we’re out and about at Lodge Farm & this afternoon we’ll be heading over to Lee Farm.👩‍🌾

No amount of farming propaganda can hide the truth while evidence of widespread abuse and neglect continues to grow.

🐷 The National Pig Association is encouraging farmers to share positive glimpses of farm life on social media as part of the #Farm24 campaign.

But our previous investigations into British farms revealed a different reality, one filled with suffering and cruelty endured by pigs across the country.

Adam Henson: 'TV's kept me from sheep shearing but I miss it' Countryfile's Adam Henson says not sheering a sheep for more than two years is something he misses.

It was a seed sown in Lincolnshire last year. @Jonobrine and the team have been carefully watering it and it’s now ready to be harvested.

FarmWatch is here (to coincide with #Farm24) right across the BBC on Thursday.

It’s not just for farmers. We all eat food. Don’t miss it.

One week to go to BBC FarmWatch day - across the BBC.

Alongside the @FarmersGuardian #Farm24 - it will be a day (and night) to celebrate our farmers, to share stories and meet those growing and delivering food from farm to fork.

Me this morning: “milking is going really well, I may even finish early”

Urge the Government to Fund Plant Farming | People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals Everyone needs farmers, but farmers don’t need to keep animals for meat, eggs, or dairy. Please urge officials to fund ethical and sustainable plant-based farming.

Animal agriculture is a leading cause of GHG emissions, biodiversity loss, and pollution in the UK.

Let's push for change 👇

Meat and the Environment | Animals Are Not Ours to Eat | PETA UK The meat industry is destroying our planet. It's a major contributor to climate change and greenhouse gas emissions, causes pollution and deforestation, wastes precious water resources, and kills billions of animals a year.

Did you know? Harvard Law School's 2019 study found using all UK cropland for human food can fully feed our population.

Rewilding grasslands can sequester carbon, and aid climate goals.

Urge the Government to Fund Plant Farming | People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals Everyone needs farmers, but farmers don’t need to keep animals for meat, eggs, or dairy. Please urge officials to fund ethical and sustainable plant-based farming.

They need our support to make the switch.
