A great chat with the Mayers family from Tempo this week on their farming policy, which is focused both efficiency and the environment. I even gave them a hand to weigh a few cattle! Does this make me a Roving Reporter? #journalism #farming

A big thanks to Simon and Jennifer Bullock for opening the gates of Annagh Social Farm for this week's feature! A former dairy farmer, back in 2013 Simon realised his vision of an inclusive social farm where service users can feed animals, work the land and learn new skills.

A huge thanks to every farmer who has opened their gates to me in recent months for our new 'Way of Life' feature. The skill, dedication and passion each farmer brings to the industry is remarkable! Looking forward to profiling more hard-working farming families in 2025.

Ava Moffitt, daughter late mart manager, Ivan, has said her father would have been "delighted" with the success of the recent show and sale at Manorhamilton. Following Ivan's sudden passing last month, Ava was determined that the event would go ahead.
