24 Hours in Farming is back, as we take to social media to show the world what British farmers do.
Will you be joining in?
Farming is a 24-hour job and, with our British farmers working tirelessly around-the-clock to produce the nation’s food and maintain our iconic countryside, 24 Hours in Farming is your chance to take to social media and say thank you.
From 5am on Thursday, August 9, until 5am on Friday, August 10, 24 Hours in Farming will highlight the industry’s hard work, passion and dedication, and it is an opportunity to hear first-hand from those in the field about what they do and why.

This year, the event will shine a spotlight on food, and we want as many pictures and videos as possible of delicious dishes you have cooked using British produce.
Tell us what your favourite British dish is or share your family’s recipe. We want to shout about all the wonderful ingredients we have on offer.
If you are a farm shop or produce your own food, why not take a photo of it and share it with the world?
It could be cheese, ice cream or locally-made sausages, but whatever you are making, we want to know how it is made and why you love it.
How can you take part?
Taking part is easy and we want as many people as possible from within the industry and outside of it to join in on the day.
