Want to take part in Bank of Ireland Open Farm Weekend 2020?
Recruitment is now open for Bank of Ireland Open Farm Weekend 2020 and we’re looking for new farmers to help educate the public on the realities of farming and food production.
Taking place on Saturday 13th & Sunday 14th June 2020, our award-winning event aims to involve approximately 25 working farms throughout Northern Ireland. Collectively the farms will attract between 15,000 – 20,000 visitors, mostly from an urban/non agri background, and offer them a unique opportunity to experience farming, and learn more about the ‘Farm to Fork’ journey.
We need farms of every kind from all over Northern Ireland to take part and we’re particularly keen to hear from farmers in the West of the province. If you’re interested in hearing more about what’s involved in opening your farm for the first time and we can help make your event a success, please just get in touch.
A training day will be held in April 2020 at which former hosts and new hosts will receive training and share ideas together.
