Lincolnshire Agricultural Society
Annual Spring Lecture
Each year the Lincolnshire Agricultural Society’s Farm Lincs Education Committee organises a lecture which contributes to the charitable educational objectives of the Society to keep the local community informed on agricultural and environmental issues.
With well respected key note speakers invited to share their knowledge and discuss current agricultural affairs and recent developments the evening is both informative and a great social gathering.
All are welcome, with entry free to members of the Society (who can also bring two guests) and only £10 for non members. Refreshments, wine and a hot buffet are all included and about 280 people attended this year's lecture!
