What is County Durham YFC?
County Durham Federation of Young Farmers has 8 clubs in the County . Each Club runs it's own programme of events for the year, this programme is decided by you, the members. This means that clubs only do those things that they feel are fun and important.
In addition to this there are County sports and competitions throughout the year, the winners of which can go on to a Northern Area decider and finally to the National Finals, run by the National Federation of Young Farmers'. You can do as much or as little as you like. In June 2011 County Durham will be hosting the Northern Area Field Day
Young Farmers Clubs (YFC) gives you a great opportunity to socialise and make many new friends. There are loads of YFC social events every year ranging from local club YFC discos to the infamous County Christmas Ball. Being a YFC member means you will have an instant network of friends all around your County, your Country - or even around the world if you apply for an international exchange. You don't need a wax jacket and wellies, we are here for anyone aged 10yrs - 26yrs
