It’s all go for Farm Day
Released 28 Mar 2010
23 farms across the country are getting ready to throw open the farm gate for Federated Farmers Farm Day.
"It's all go, rain, hail or shine, because that's the reality of farming," says Don Nicolson, Federated Farmers President.
"All the farms are looking forward to opening to the public and are excited about putting farm life on display.
"There are going to be farm walks, milking demonstrations, sheep shearing and working dogs on display.
"It's a great chance for Kiwis to check out what actually goes on at the farm," Mr Nicolson concluded.
