On Friday March 10th 2017 Tim & Ollie from the farm team attended the annual Angus sale at Thame Auction Market which saw over 500 head of cattle sold. The event was sponsored by County Insurance Services and is one of the market’s busiest days in the sale calendar.
R S T Farming Ltd of Hardham, Pulborough won the prize for best heifer of the show which County sponsor.
The sale draws farmers from North Lincolnshire and even as far as Devon to buy and sell their cattle.
County offered breakfast roll and hot drink vouchers to buyers, vendors and hauliers, as well as the chance to meet and discuss any insurance needs.
Tim Sydenham, Director, said:
“While farmers are primarily there to buy or sell their cattle, it’s also a great opportunity to come and see their insurance provider and catch up on matters.”
“County Insurance have a long and rich history with Thame market and it’s great to support local, regional and national farmers in attending these sale days. As one of the original sponsors of the Sheep Fair held at the Thame showground and being a regular sponsor of spring and Autumn cattle sales, we are very proud of our association with our local market.”
County’s Out in the Field team will next be appearing at the Heathfield Show on Saturday, May 27th at Broadoak, Heathfield.
