Thanks to all the volunteers at Inniscarra

Farming is like a merry-go-round, with baby calves on the farm again. Autumn breeding season is just around the corner, and it is hard to believe we will be breeding the show heifers soon, writes Aherla dairy farmer Paula Hynes

Our outdoor show season came to a close at Inniscarra Agricultural Show on  August 31. The weather may have been wet and windy, but we were glad to support them as the girls would not be able to compete at the level they do today, had it not been for local agricultural shows. 

This year, it was just me, Pete and Georgie going to the show as our eldest daughter Becky was busy packing for travelling — although she did make sure to clip and prepare the two heifers for us before we left.
