Anne Marie Morris, the Member of Parliament for Newton Abbot, today visited the Devon County Show held annually in Clyst St Mary near Exeter.
The show is a celebration of rural life in Devon and features country and livestock competitions, a grand parade, equine events, local food and local drink, traditional entertainment and rural crafts. After a particularly wet and difficult winter, Anne Marie was grateful for the opportunity to listen to the experiences of local farmers at the National Farming Union’s stand.
Commenting on her attendance, Anne Marie said: “Great first day of the Devon County Show. The sun shone and it was clear competitors and exhibitors had worked hard to deliver yet another great event!”
