Thousands enjoyed a day in the sunshine at this year’s Suffolk Young Farmers’ Country Fair at Easton Farm Park on Sunday.
The event included a host of fun agricultural attractions including dog show, duck herding, show jumping, vintage tractor displays and lamb feeding.
There were also plenty of stalls packed full of tasty treats and artisan foods.
Organiser Tory Lugsden said the event had been a huge success, and blessed with good weather.
She said: “I think it has gone really well now the sun has come out.
“I think we may have pulled it off.
“What we try and do is give children the chance to get up close with agriculture.
