Farmers on Anglesey got their day off to a racing start when they joined the Farmers’ Union of Wales farmhouse breakfast at Cartio Mon, Bodedern.
The breakfast, which was well attended by members, was part of the FUW’s farmhouse breakfast week campaign. It aimed to help politicians, key stakeholders and the general public to appreciate the important role the food and drink sector plays in their everyday lives.
“We enjoyed a great breakfast here at Cartio Mon and I would like to thank you for supporting us on the day. This breakfast campaign provided an opportunity to promote the quality premium local produce that farmers grow for us every day of the year and throughout breakfast week we put a spotlight on the importance of our rural economy,” said FUW Anglesey County Chairman Peter Williams.

Over the last year the FUW has been busy highlighting why farming matters – not just in terms of food security but also in terms of our rural economy and our rural communities.
As well as raising the profile of Welsh farming, the Anglesey branch also raised £365 for BHF Cymru, the FUW President’s chosen charity.
