First Prize!

The Pasture Fed Livestock Association had their first ever show and sale at Ross on Wye in September and we took along a couple of cattle.

The association promotes meat and dairy from pasture and runs the only active 100% grass fed accreditation scheme in the UK, of which we are apart of. We've been keen members for several years, so were keen to support the event, but we had never shown cattle before. They were judged in the pen which meant that we didn't have to walk them on a halter - that could have been interesting! Ours were in the class for male young stock, and we took first prize for one of them, which was great and rather unexpected. The judge thought that it had grown well and would be an excellent beef animal.

It was great to see so many grain free cattle of all breeds and types and catch up with a great group of people.
