The winner of the Farming Friends “Foto” of the Month Competition for September is Laurie @ Miss Flower. A gift will be on it’s way to Laurie in New York very soon, so well done Laurie.
This photograph was taken by Laurie from Miss Flower last Winter of a horse and an old silo.
Farming Friends would also like to thank the following for their entries - the judge said the calibre of the photographs was excellent, so well done everyone:
Denise took this photograph of the barn, truck and chicken crates in Lindsborg, Kansas USA. Denise said in her email, ”It is one of my most favorite photos ever. I remember looking up and thinking to myself, I’ve GOT to get a picture of this!”
This photograph was taken by Leanne in early September and shows a tractor ploughing the neighbouring field in South Somerset.
This photograph was taken by Virginia and shows a strawberry crop and it’s polytunnel supports in Herefordshire near Ross-on-Wye last Summer.
This is a photograph sent in by Rebecca from Irish Sally Garden of a basket of September apples picked from Rebecca’s orchard.
This photograph was sent in by Rebecca from Irish Sally Garden. It shows Rebecca’s 3 year old daughter helping to hand pull ragwort out of the goat’s field before it seeds.
Virginia took this photograph in July just after her husband finished planting his latest vines in his vineyard in Herefordshire.
This photograph was taken by Lucy @ the Smallest Smallholding and shows Lucy’s hen Pattie perched on the crop of crab apples collected so far this harvest.
This photograph is a closeup of the sunflower Lucy from the Smallest Smallholding has currently growing in her garden.
This photograph was also taken by Laurie from Miss Flower. The picture shows the local greenhouse that Chris and Laurie visit.
It looks like TopVeg have been up close to some wasps to get this photograph of a wasp nest. I hope TopVeg didn’t get stung in the name of photography!!
This photograph of the corn field was taken at the beginning of September from Louise @ This Is My Patch’s dad’s back garden which is in Clapham, West Sussex on the edge of the South Downs.

Sara, this competition you have going is so much fun to watch and participate in! I love looking at everyone’s photographs and really like seeing how things are done in other parts of the world (as opposed to my neck of the woods).
Thanks for liking my entry and congratulations, Laurie! -Denise
