FARM & MORE 2011 was a great success all round - with over 1,000 delegate days and growth in every part of the event, we would just like to say a big 'thank you' to everyone who attended, from our delegates to our exhibitors and our various speakers and crew - thank you all for coming & we hope to see you all again next year!

For a selection of our favourite photos from the whole four days, please see our photos page.

But don't just take our word for it...

Just a note to say how “bloody brilliant” the conference organisation was – large pat on the back for all the team. I have a slight problem that my head is swimming with ideas and I now have to implement it!

Both Dan & myself came away inspired following FARM & MORE last week having found it very informative & thoroughly enjoyable. It also provided us with a unique opportunity to spend time in the company of a great group of people.

I have just come back from the annual conference for farm shops run by FARMA.
In my opinion, it is one of the best get-togethers of independent retailers during the year.... The fact that a load of retailers are together in one place talking, drinking and dancing - in some cases until the small hours of the morning - means that ideas are swapped, people are excited about what can happen in their shop, and come back buzzing with new ideas.

Well done for organising another successful conference, everyone I spoke to was enthusiastic and benefitting greatly, let’s hope that lasts when they get back to their businesses.
- Lorna Harris, Duchy College

We found the show to be quite fruitful, and came away with some good contacts made and potential new sites for In-store bakery.
- Kathy Halton, Country Choice Foods

I sincerely believe it was the best conference (in difficult times) I have ever attended. A lot of new faces and young delegates made it a more vibrant place to be, well chosen speakers for a great opening session and first day... Well Done!
- Georgina Mason, Gonalston Farm Shop

I have to say the conference was incredibly useful and left me determined to make a success of setting up our first market.
- John J. Yale, Buckenham Farms

A HUGE well done to all. The whole event ran very, very smoothly and was very enjoyable indeed. Thank you, Sally and Andrew
- Sally Jackson, Pink Pig Farm

It was a great conference and awards do - we learnt loads and felt very inspired. Came back full of ideas!
- Helen Seymour, Headingley Farmers' Market

I found the farmers' market conference incredibly valuable, and I learned a lot. The sessions and discussions were very practical and have really enabled me to be clear on how I develop this side of my farm retailing.
- John J Yale, Buckenham Farms

Just wanted to contact you all to say what a great conference it was this year. I hadn’t made it for the last few but will definitely pencil it in for next year!
