@neilyboy67 @JamesTCobbler They're not all burglars and if you've ever had a key cut, you don't give them your address!

@agri_hub @Natalie_Agri Happy birthday @Natalie_Agri ! Hope you had a great day

[Kim Walton @Kim_Rural]

You know Autumn is on the way when the garden starts to look like a pillow fight has happened. Soon they'll have their lovely green heads back.

An increase in holidaymakers staying in the UK increases the risk of attacks on sheep from dogs this summer.🐶

Please put your dog on a lead! For more information from the National Sheep Association read below 👇

@RuralBusinessUK Its so easy to do and there should be no excuse. We've found a tup and 3 ewes with suspected dog bites this year. All are fine now but it could have easily been the other way.

[Kim Walton @Kim_Rural]

The last supper for Arnie. A broken ankle means this gentle tup has to be put down. Tough decision but the right one for him. Farm life is rough some days and today is one of them 😟

[National Farmers' Union @NFUtweets]

We all know that getting out in the countryside and farmland can lift us up when we feel down and help us get the muscles working while out on our favourite walk.

Now there are stats to prove it!

In a recent survey of people outside of rural areas…

There is a special kind of irony in people posting about tracking devices in the covid vaccine, on social media platforms that actually do track their online habits all the while doing so on phones which track their physical location. 🤔🤔

Good night weekend, bring on Monday!

The animals have their favourite shady spots. Hamish the cat loves the peony & the ducks favour either side of the jasmine that never flowers!

The sun didn't make an appearance at #Cereals2021 today but these wildflowers sure brightened things up

[Kim Walton @Kim_Rural]

Next week I'll be taking on a speaker slot at Cereals, covering diversification and pop up camping. Little bit nervous but looking forward it. If you're a farmer, what would you want to know?

The @CerealsEvent will go ahead as planned despite the delay in the lifting of lockdown restrictions, as it will still comply with local and national legislative measures, organisers have confirmed.

Calling all farmers - if you're planning on diversifying, what would you want to know?
In two weeks I'm speaking at the Cereals Event, covering farm diversification & pop up campsites. What should I cover and what do you already know? Options, funding, marketing, operations?

[Kim Walton @Kim_Rural]

It's shearing day with glorious blue skies.
