Ellerton Grange Open Day

The Workman family are opening the gates to Ellerton Grange Farm in Southwaite on 3 November.

You may already know the family from The Beeches Farm on the outskirts of Carlisle, home to their popular Milk Shed vending machine.

For this open day, we’ll be visiting their greenfield site at Ellerton Grange, where the Lely Astronauts, Vector, Discovery Collectors and Grazeway all work together across the farm.

The gates will open at 10am, giving you time to arrive, grab a drink and have a chat with the team before the day gets underway.

At 11am, we’ll have introductions before splitting into groups for guided tours around the farm. Each group will be led by a dedicated member of the Lely Center Longtown team, highlighting the different elements of the new shed and giving you the chance to ask questions as you go.

Lunch will be served from 12:30pm, with the day finishing at 3pm.

Come along, have a look around, ask questions and, most importantly, spend time with fellow farmers. Open days are a brilliant opportunity to swap ideas, hear how others are doing things and take a bit of inspiration back to your own farm.
