Event Coordinator Mary Hollis from Green Synergy- says “speaking on behalf of the group of us who are jointly organising this, we are really excited about the event. Not only do we hope that it will be a fantastic affordable day out for local people and families but, importantly it will also bring a slice of the countryside right into the heart of Lincoln. It will give people an opportunity to personally experience and find out more about the farming and our amazing rural county without having to travel outside of the city”
