Each year the Royal Welsh Agricultural Society has a different Feature County, and this year it’s Glamorgan’s turn. The Glamorgan Feature County event for 2023 is Regen ’23, standing for Regenerative, Energy, Grassland, Environmental and Natural.
The exciting Regen event will take place in the Vale of Glamorgan, at Sealands Farm, St Brides Major CF32 0RR on Thursday 8 June 2023 at 10am.
