Farming is Magic

Working in agriculture we've lots to show & share in talks, farm walks & open days. Let's do it brilliantly! Watch our films. Share the magic.

Blackberrying and farm walk. Not only adding to the curriculum but most important just having fun and enjoying where they live. It is fantastic that @Ruralpay are funding extra visits through FIPL. I love having schools on the farm they are a joy.

Farming (and being around farmers) is Magic!

Has the wow factor alright.

How about this for a positive learning experience this morning..? We do a programme of school visits thanks to @DefraGovUK ED1 & AC1 funding supported by @LEAF_Farming @LEAF_Education for local schools and found this as part of a ‘Green Treasure Hunt’ @NFFNUK @BBCSpringwatch

Now here’s a good idea from our Member Tom Martin. Listen to how this quick action has saved so, so much.

So lovely that @LEAF_Farming @AnnabelOFS give big shout out at @Groundswellaguk for ongoing value of our films that show #farmingismagic.

Just shows if a job’s worth doing it’s worth doing well.

If you’ve not seen & used them yet, DO!

🌼 Fact for the day 🌼

Data from @Floodplainmead suggests floodplain meadows contain more carbon in the soil than woodland...

It’s a good job we’re hatching plans with @NorfolkWT to enhance these special meadows all through the catchment

Have we got new(t)s for you!

#FarmerTime links farmers and school classes for regular video calls to bring the curriculum to life and show children what happens on the other side of the farm gate.

They need you to help this happen.

🪶 News flash 🪶

We think supplementary feeding is critical to the success of our farmland bird species

Here’s @Wensumfarmers John and his lovely family - they have set up multiple @Perdixwildlife feeding stations this winter

As farmers you’ve captured that magic in sunny wintry scenes.

Sure, snow makes a lot of farming tasks harder. But it does give lot of scenes and shapes to reflect on too.

[Wensum Farmers Group @Wensumfarmers]

❄️ Snowy scenes from our beloved Wensum catchment ❄️

Every now and then we all need the chance to stop.... think..... and reflect

Deeply, richly, totally deserved.

Our farmscape is all the better for having you in it @AbiReader.

Thank you.

[Will Bevan @stowshepherd]

Ok Twitter I need some help some scumbag stole our 5 puppies last night so can we make them so hot to handle

[Farming is Magic @FarmingisMagic]

@Emma_Bullhook And take a look through our film collection for farmers’ explanations of how they produce the crops and animals https://t.co/4DzGsJawAX Good luck and thanks for asking for ideas.

Farm wildlife is magic!

[Susie Emmett @susieshoots]

In the damp chill of my moonlit meadow walk with my dogs this evening, a flutter crossed my torch beam.

Stay safe, delicate little creature. #WildWednesday

[Susie Emmett @susieshoots]

So.
Lockdown will end in tiers.

[Farming is Magic @FarmingisMagic]

Proving that Farming is, in the right motivated positive change-making hands, Magic. Thank you!

[James Robinson @JRfromStrickley]

If anybody thinks that as individual farmers, we can’t make a difference, then they’re wrong.

2 photos on our farm, taken in the exact same spot, April 1989 & June 2020.

Be the change you want to see. We’re only here once, may as well make a difference & do something worthwhile
