We left the wheat 🌾 after last year’s potato 🥔 field until last to apply digestate this afternoon at Lower Drayton Farm. It had been ploughed last year but traveled well and glad to get it done before more rain 🌧️ forecast tonight. 🚜 #Spring24

Today is a special day for our farming family, we are back farming land which was part of the farm where farmer Rays father, Jim grew up and where the Bower family first moved to in Staffordshire 100 years ago when they moved down from Cheshire. #Borntofarm #Familyfarm National Farmers' Union
