Crab Football

So last night was the first week back to Young Farmers and we had almost 30 members attend (including 5 new members). Unfortunately our original plan of a  microbakery didn't happen ... so we decided to have a go at crab football instead!! ⚽️⚽️

Biggleswade YFC Touch Rugby Competition

Yesterday members competed in a touch rugby and contact rugby 7's competition at Biggleswade Rugbg club hosted by Biggleswade YFC. 

 After a hot afternoon the boys touch team came 3rd and the girls touch team came 5th. 

The boys contact team also came 3rd. ☺️

Agm Agm Agm

 This years national Agm attended by all young farmers from England and Wales was held in Torquay! 

Over 100 members from Bedfordshire went - below are a few photos .... 

    

Rally is coming ...

Members of silsoe spent a number of weeks painting a rally sign which you may have seen on the A507 near flitwick ..... 

 

 

Bacon Ball

Being a young farmer is not just about attending the weekly meetings or participating in the competitions, there is also a huge social side to be a young farmer! 

Back in April a group of over 20 Silsoe members attended a charity ball to support sophie (one of our Silsoe members). 

The ball raised in excess of £15,000 for charity! 

A few pictures are below ....

 

  

Art evening

Back in April Silsoe were treated to an evening of art with our very own Tommy H. (Silsoe Chairman) 

Members were taught how to turn their stick men into real drawings and the pictures were judged and winners received prizes! 

 

    

Lambing!!

Members were treated to a trip around the lambing shed a few weeks ago! 

After a brief introduction by David, members got to cuddle lambs, watch the birth of 3 sets of twins and finally saw all the orphan lambs as they were fed by a machine.

Below are a few pictures...
