Bringing farming closer to consumers and showcasing the important role food producers play in the community in a family-friendly way are just some of the positive outcomes expected from this year\u2019s Garth Country Fair.<\/p>\n

Hosting the special event, which is now in its third year, are Hybu Cig Cymru \u2013 Meat Promotion Wales (HCC) campaign stars Ben and Ethan Williams of Garth Farm, situated on Cardiff’s highest point in Pentyrch.<\/p>\n

Opening the farm gates on Saturday 10th August from 10.30am, visitors to the event can look forward to tractor trailer rides, captivating countryside demonstrations, archery, novelty dog shows, live music, a vintage motor display, birds of prey flight displays, a variety of market stalls and lots more for all ages. The event is also proudly supporting Ty Hafan for 2024.<\/p>\n

Four generations of the Williams family have farmed at Garth Uchaf, initially as tenant farmers, before husband and wife Elwyn and Sue Williams established the farm\u00a0in 1959, with their son Edward (Ted) and his wife Karen later managing the farm.<\/p>\n

Today, the farm is managed by Ben and Ethan, Karen and Edward\u2019s two sons, and consists of a flock of almost 700 ewes (South Welsh Mountain, Suffolk crosses, Black Welsh Mountain) and 20 rams (South Welsh Mountain and Black Welsh Mountain). The Williams\u2019 also have a herd of pedigree Welsh Black cattle consisting of 46 suckler cows and two bulls, and some Welsh pigs.<\/p>\n

Speaking ahead of the event, Ben Williams said: \u201cWe are delighted to host this event on our farm again this year. It is community driven and aims to bring families from across the region together for a great day out. At the same time it connects our consumers with farming and helps us tell the positive story of PGI Welsh Lamb and PGI Welsh Beef.\u201d<\/p>\n

HCC, who are also joining the event, will be sharing recipe ideas, children\u2019s farm booklets and helping to tell the nutritious story of red meat as part of a balanced diet.<\/p>\n

HCC\u2019s Head of Strategic Marketing and Connections Laura Pickup said: \u201cHCC is proud to support this event and we look forward to joining Ben, the family and all visitors for the day. Events like these are so important and help highlight the connecting role our farmers play in communities across the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cFarms like Garth Uchaf are the linchpins in our social fabric, they keep our culture and way of life alive, help consumers understand how their food is produced and engage the entire family. I hope many people will be able to join them for what promises to be an excellent day out.\u201d<\/p>\n
