Masham Agricultural Discussion Group recently presented a cheque for £600 to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance (YAA) at Mainsgill Farm Shop.
This follows a well-attended farm walk in June when the group visited the Henshaws Howden Hill Farm, Cleasby, to see their new cattle fattening cattle shed for 500-plus head.
The evening was completed by travelling to Mainsgill, where Mr and Mrs Henshaw Snr gave a talk on the successful establishment of their farming and farm shop in North Yorkshire from more modest holdings in Lancashire.
A splendid buffet supper was provided by the hosts, and a collection in aid of the YAA raised £600 helped by a kind contribution from friends of the hosts.
The presentation of the cheque was made by Mark Marley, chairman, and Dan Marriner, treasurer, to Michelle Raine of the YAA.
