One of our sponsors, Penbode Farm Vets, are known for their support of the annual country shows and their Young Handler Competitions.

With all shows cancelled this year Penbode wants to continue to encourage North Devon’s young farmers and are holding a FREE online competition - with prizes of course!

They have four classes catering for competitors aged 16 and under on 27 August.
Class 1 - KS1+KS2 - Beef or dairy calf
Class 2 - KS1+KS2 - Any sheep breed
Class 3 - KS3+KS4 - Beef or dairy calf
Class 4 - KS3+KS4 - Any sheep breed

Anyone can enter (clients and non-clients). Simply upload a video of the competitor showing the animal and telling Penbode about it in a
couple of paragraphs on the Penbode Farm Vets Facebook page
@penbodefarmvets, by midnight on Tuesday 25 August.

There is no entry fee.

Judging will take place on 27 August and winners will be announced that day.

We are delighted to announce that the Woolsery Show chairman, Pat Martin, will be judging the sheep classes and one of our regular competitors, Abi Marshall the cattle classes.

Prizes will be awarded for animal handling and knowledge.

Please provide contact information separately via email to farm@penbodevets.co.uk

Note: all videos will be removed from the Facebook page after two weeks
