Southwell & District Ploughing Match
Saturday 26 September 2026
The Southwell and District Ploughing Match returns on Saturday 26 September 2026 in Farnsfield, bringing together farmers, rural businesses and countryside communities for one of the largest agricultural shows in the region. Established in 1855, the annual event celebrates every stage of agriculture, from land cultivation and livestock management to locally produced food and traditional rural crafts. Visitors can enjoy a wide range of attractions, including ploughing competitions with horses, vintage and modern tractors, livestock judging, farm displays and a popular dog show.
Beaumond House Hospice Care is delighted to be attending this year's event and has been chosen as the beneficiary of the end-of-show auction. The hospice will have a presence at the show with a dedicated space next to the Horticulture and Home Produce Marquee, providing an opportunity for visitors to learn more about the care and support Beaumond House offers to local people and their families.
The Horticulture and Home Produce Marquee is always a highlight of the show, featuring more than 100 competition classes including fruit, vegetables, flowers, eggs, floral art, baking, preserves, handicrafts, artwork and children's entries. At 4.15pm, an auction of donated exhibits will take place outside the marquee, with proceeds from the sale supporting Beaumond House Hospice Care. Visitors are encouraged to stay for the auction, where every bid will help raise vital funds to support hospice services across the local community.
