Bale spotting

KEEP your eyes open for purple bales when you're out and about in the area over the next few weeks. F

For farmers are hiding critters in the hedgerows, as part of a competition organised by Carrs Billington Agriculture to support WellChild.

They are being challenged to create their critters from silage bales wrapped in WellChild’s colour purple. They can customise their bales with special sticker packs provided by Carrs Billington in Annan.

Those taking part in the competition will send in photos of their creations to be displayed on the WellChild and Carrs Billington Facebook pages. And the farmer whose critter display is judged the best, will receive two tickets for the prestigious WellChild Awards 2018 in London later this year.

If you spot a creative purple bale display in Dumfriesshire, send in a picture to [email protected]
