The day was a non-profit event organised by the Tendring Hundred Farmers’ Club to celebrate the area’s agriculture, with the theme of this year’s show being food, farming and fitness.

Over 250 trade stands and exhibits were in place, as well as an undercover shopping market, food pavilion and art and lifestyle marquee.

Special guests included horses, cattle, sheep, goats, guinea pigs, and some ‘fancy rats'.

Speaking ahead of the show, club president George Harris from East Bergholt said: “Children will be able to see for themselves the importance of good healthy British food and how it can benefit our overall health, and better understand how regular exercise can burn off those unwanted calories as well as benefit our well-being and mental health.”
