First FUW Meirionnydd farmhouse breakfast big success

The first in a series of Farmers' Union of Wales farmhouse breakfast functions to celebrate the annual Farmhouse Breakfast Week was kick-started yesterday (Monday January 27) by the union's Meirionnydd branch at Parc, near Bala.

The well-attended event at a disused school now being used as a village hall also raised £650 towards union president Emyr Jones’ charities Ty Hafan and Ty Gobaith.

Mr Jones said: “I am extremely grateful to everyone who came to support the breakfast and I would like to thank Olwen and Nia Davies for being great hosts.

“We have started Farmhouse Breakfast Week extremely well and raised a good amount of money for the charities. I hope all the other breakfast functions across Wales go just as well as this one."

FUW Meirionnydd county executive officer Huw Jones thanked the event's sponsors - local butchers T J Roberts & Sons and Cigydd y Bala; Wyau Berwyn Cyf, Blaengwnodl Isaf, Cynwyd; Booker Cash & Carry, Rhostyllen; Blodau Rhianfa, Bala; Co op Store, Bala; and Spar, Bala - for their support.

He said he's now looking forward to the branch's next farmhouse breakfast on Friday January 31 (at 8am and 11.30am) at Mr and Mrs R J Breese's farm, Gogarth, Pennal, which local AM Dafydd Elis-Thomas is expected to attend.
