Recognising the south-west’s farming heroes
The Farm Business Awards
Welcome to the Addington Fund’s ‘Farm Business Awards’, highlights in the farming calendar in both Devon and Cornwall. Celebrating agricultural successes and honouring key players, these prestigious events also create a high-profile platform for sponsors and raise vital funds for our charitable work.
A winning formula
These prestigious events are held annually at The Eden Project and The Devon County Showground. The 2024 Cornwall Farm Business Awards will take place on Thursday 26 September, whilst the 2024 Devon Farm Business Awards are scheduled for Wednesday 15 May. Do add these dates to your diary now!
Having become well-established events within the farming calendar, our flagship celebrations highlight just how amazing our farmers are. They raise the profile of our innovative industry, and rightly reward achievement and recognise the vital work farmers do. Read on to find out how you can get involved.
