A new year usually means a New Year’s resolution for many. So why not make having breakfast a good habit starting from this month? To help you with the new resolution there are farmhouse breakfast being held in Denbighshire and Flintshire, which you can join.
The Denbigh and Flint branches of the Farmers’ Union of Wales (FUW) are hosting three breakfast in January as part of the FUW’s farmhouse breakfast week, which are held on:
- Friday, January 27, at Neuadd y Pentre, Groes, near Denbigh;
- Saturday, January 28, at Gwytherin Village Hall,
- Friday, January 27, Cilcain Village Hall, Flintshire.
“Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day, providing the body and brain with fuel after an overnight fast. Without breakfast you are effectively running on empty, like trying to start the tractor or car without fuel, it’s not going to give you the best start to the day.
“And if like some of us, you have overindulged a little bit over the festive period, then you will be pleased to hear that research has shown that those who eat breakfast regularly are less likely to be overweight. It might even help you to lose a few extra pounds, because if you have breakfast you are less likely to reach for high sugar and fatty snacks mid-morning,” said Gwennan Williams, the FUW’s Denbigh and Flint County Executive Officer’s Assistant.
This breakfast campaign also provides an opportunity to promote the quality premium local produce that farmers grow for us every day of the year and throughout breakfast week the FUW will shine a spotlight on the importance of our rural economy.
“Politicians, key stakeholders and the general public need to really understand the important role the food and drink sector plays in their everyday lives, so to do just that we will be enjoying some great local produce to kick-start our day as part of our breakfast week campaign.
“But we want you to be a part of what we do, and share your thoughts and worries about the state of the industry, tell us your stories and help us to understand how we can help each other,” added Gwennan Williams.
