Congratulations and a great shout out for Darren Bennett, wishing you the very best of luck at the final.

A last-minute decision paid off as Darren Crowe and Daisy Murray's horse, Saveasea, secured victory at the Herts County Show!

🌾 Thank a Farmer this Harvest 🚜💚

As harvest continues across Hertfordshire and beyond, it’s the perfect time to recognise the incredible dedication of our farmers.
From early mornings to late nights, often working around unpredictable weather, farmers work tirelessly to produce the food on our tables while caring for our countryside and livestock.

Harvest is one of the busiest and most important times of the year, requiring months of planning, hard work and resilience.
At Hertfordshire County Show, we’re proud to celebrate the people at the heart of British agriculture and showcase the vital role farming plays in our communities.

So next time you enjoy a loaf of bread, a glass of milk, fresh vegetables or locally produced meat, take a moment to say thank you to the farmers who make it all possible.

🌾 Thank you to every farmer for everything you do.

🌟 Fancy Dress Debut — Livestock Grand Parade, Herts Show 2026 🌟

This year the livestock team launched something brand new — fancy dress in the Livestock Grand Parade — all to raise money, and it turned out to be one of the most entertaining moments of the entire show.

We had Freya as Little Bo Peep, leading her flock with style. Then came the fairy farmers floating around the ring, a random fox who seemed to appear from nowhere, and of course… the iconic banana stealing the spotlight.

And the tutus. So many tutus. No one is entirely sure what the theme was supposed to be — but honestly, that made it even better. It was colourful, chaotic, and completely joyful.

The crowd loved it. The exhibitors went all‑in. And for a brand‑new addition to 2026, it couldn’t have been more of a hit.

Did you have a favourite? Maybe the Bo Peep moment, the tutu takeover, or the mystery fox.
