IRELAND’S FARMING FOR NATURE AMBASSADORS ANNOUNCED – VOTE NOW

To recognise farmers who are doing their upmost for the environment, in recent years a Farming for Nature Award has been established. The 2019 Farming for Nature Awards is well underway and the competition is now nearing its final stage; where the public get to vote for the preferred farmer, out of a shortlisting of 10 Farming for Nature Ambassadors. While there are no farmers in the running from County Cork this year (and hopefully that will change for 2020!) there are some exceptionally well-run farms in so far as biodiversity is concerned and in supporting the competition and this year’s farmers it is hoped that the competition will grow year after year. Each Farmer has a video on https://www.farmingfornature.ie/awards/voting and they are excellent viewing. Voting is open until Thursday 25^th October 2019 and the best of luck and every continued success for each of the farmers involved and indeed all of the farmers who value nature and biodiversity
