CUMBRIA AGM

We were delighted to be joined by 35 farmers, corporate members and sponsors for last night’s Cumbria Farmer Network AGM at Penrith.  Adam gave an update on network activity and plans for next year, Donna reported on the accounts and membership and Veronica covered the many projects that the Network operates.  Jim Campbell, who has represented Eden on the Cumbria Management Council for several years, stood down due to moving out of the area and Adam thanked him for his contribution.  We look forward to working with Jim’s replacement, Andrew Marston from Kirkby Stephen.  Following the official business, we had a very entertaining talk from Mark Lee of Torpenhow Farmhouse Dairy about the ups and downs he, and wife Jenny, have had on the journey to develop their business.
