Judith Roach and Emma Thomas are the volunteer coordinators of the annual Christmas Fair, which last Christmas became a two-day event for the first time, and it was a huge success. Co-ordinating an event like this is a lot of work behind the scenes and requires a passion for showcasing the amazing produce that Pembrokeshire small businesses have to offer, and for it all to come together successfully shows the organisational skills that these two ladies have.

Judith lives in Haverfordwest and has a greetings card and gift business Judith Roach Greeting Cards & Stationery - Pembrokeshire Sir Benfro and she and Emma are also the organiser of the Country Market Marquee at the County Show.

Emma farms on the family farm where they run a flock of 200 commercial ewes and fatten store cattle as well as running a very successful floristry business that caters for weddings and events Sheep Shed

We thank them both for the tremendous amount of hours they put in to helping us make our events such a success.

With the Equine Spring Show fast approaching, the next behind the scenes volunteer focus is on Gemma Rees.
Gemma lives and works on the family farm in Wiston, where she is also mum to two young children. She is an Honorary Show Governor, and coordinates the equine side of things, alongside a large team of enthusiastic volunteers. Gemma doesn’t shy away from work and can be found at the Showground at 5am parking lorries, before she rushes around coordinating classes, looking after riders and making sure the day all runs smoothly. Gemma’s expertise with all things equine, mean that we have competitions which incorporate every aspect for every horse and rider.

If you farm in Pembrokeshire and can demonstrate your farm’s use of the latest technological methods to promote progressive, sustainable agriculture then the Pembrokeshire Agricultural Society encourage you to enter the prestigious Baron de Rutzen Award.

Tim Johns, Pembrokeshire Agricultural Society’s President, said, “We are looking for local Pembrokeshire farmers, under the age of 45, who can demonstrate their farm’s use of the latest technological methods to promote progressive, sustainable agriculture. They also need to show consideration for the environment and habitat sensitivity on their farm as well as present an aesthetically pleasing example of farming in the county. The competition welcomes all those in the livestock and arable sectors to enter.”

Last year’s winners of the Award were Andrew and Jane Phillips of Windsor Farm, Lamphey (pictured). They farm 1,100 acres, with 3,000 breeding sheep and lambs. A herd of British Blue cross Limousin suckler cows sired by a Limousin bull and all calves are sold as weaned. The arable side of the business includes 80 acres of winter and spring barley which is mostly used for stock consumption. The surplus is sold. They grow 150 acres of maize which is used in a Totally Mixed Ration (TMR) for their sheep. Again, the surplus is sold to dairy farms. Some land is rented out for growing potatoes and leeks. The autumn season sees the general public invited in to buy some of the six acres of Pumpkins they grow for the Halloween market. Besides this, they are also involved with the holiday business by renting out two shepherd’s huts for visitors.

This year’s entrants must be fully practising farmers within Pembrokeshire and were under the age of 45 years on 1 January 2025.

Entries can either be by nomination or direct application online on the Pembrokeshire Agricultural Society website. Click here to apply: https://www.pembsshow.org/at-the-show/baron-de-rutzen-award/

The closing date for nominations and applications is at noon on Monday, 30 June 2025.
