The Meirionnydd branch of the Farmers’ Union of Wales has held three successful breakfast functions in aid of last month’s annual Farmhouse Breakfast Week (January 25 to 31) - a campaign organised since 2000 by the Home Grown Cereals Authority (HGCA) .
On Monday January 26 FUW members Olwen and Nia Davies, of Ty Cerrig, hosted a breakfast at Parc at Ysgol y Parc, near Bala, on Thursday January 29 Berwyn, Cerys and Beryl Hughes hosted a breakfast function at Llew Coch, Dinas Mawddwy and Dewi and Meinir Owen hosted the final county breakfast on Friday January 30 at Esgairgyfela, Aberdyfi.
“The aim was to highlight the benefits of eating a healthy breakfast and bringing the community together to discuss current agricultural topics and of course also to sample our wonderful Welsh produce, but also to raise money in aid of the FUW presidents’ charities T? Hafan and T? Gobaith,” said FUW Meirionnydd county executive officer Huw Jones.
“We are delighted to have raised around £1,150 for the charities in our county and are extremely grateful to all those who sponsored the events, to all who assissted with the arrangements and to everyone who attended the functions,” added Mr Jones.
