Singleton Rare and Traditional Breeds Show
|
"The Rare & Traditional Breeds Show is back at the Museum for 2020! UK smallholders play a vital role in nurturing rare and traditional breeds of livestock, and hundreds of cattle, sheep, pigs and goats who will participate in the show."
Judge: Lesley Beazer
"With prizes at stake and classes for young handlers, this events is hugely popular with visitors and exhibitors alike.
There are lots of classes to see and opportunities to meet the breeders situated around the show ring. The rare breeds on show are in danger of extinction if demand for their produce isn’t maintained – a taste for quality over factory farmed, intensively raised meat products. The Weald and Downland Living Museum is a charity that works to preserve our rural heritage, and rare breeds are an important part of this."
