Join us for this special evening bonus OFC Bitesize when we hear from three farmers from three regions - England, Scotland and Wales. Grab a drink, put your feet up and enjoy the discussion, which is sure to get you in the mood for our conference on 7th January 2021.
Background
Covid19 has shone a spotlight on all sorts of challenges – supply chains, global vs local, rural connectivity, economic upheaval and a focus on wellbeing. The common thread to all the challenges has been the positivity and sense of 'can-do' of people and communities. People have been stepping up to the plate to solve problems, to lead others and push boundaries for the betterment of all.
OFC’s mission statement is to inform, challenge and inspire. There is nothing more inspirational according to our Chair Sally Williams than hearing others stories and learning from them.
We will be hearing from three inspiring farmers from across the UK. We will explore their stories, and highlight that farmers are leaders at home, in the wider industry and in society at large.
Speakers:
David Hill - England - Estate Manager and founder of the Greatest Online Ag SHow
Llĵr Jones - Wales - Farmers and Cereal Entrepreneur
Kate Rowell - Scotland - Beef and Sheep farmer, and Quality Meat Scotland Chairman
Chair: Sally Williams, OFC Chairman and Farmer
