00:00So we're here at Argoid House Farm in Kinnelly, that's right isn't it? Just
00:04outside Oswestry Shreesbury really, just between the two. And we're with Zac, hello
00:11sir, and Zac's mom Laura, hello. So you've got a bit of a special event coming up
00:17haven't you? Is it a former track to run? What is it that's coming up and when is it
00:21coming up, Zac? Go on. It's our track to run and it's the 12th of July.
00:29And a tractor run, so what is a tractor run then? What happens? I'm going to the
00:35tractors and go on the road and raise some money for a charity. Which charity are you raising money for?
00:41Farming Community Network. Farming Community Network, great stuff. How many tractors are
00:50going to be involved then do we think? The last two we had about 40 or 50. 40 or 50? Wow okay, that takes
00:58up somewhere. That's a fair bit of organising. And this is your baby isn't it? You came up with
01:03this idea didn't you? So when was that then? The first thing, last year like we wanted to do the
01:12other ones that are around here and we thought we tried to do the other one. Yeah yeah. We wanted to raise some money
01:18before he left Kinnerley School and raise some money for them. Ah so you raised some money for your
01:22old school? Oh nice one buddy. And how much did you raise? 650. Yeah yeah great stuff. Cool. What did they do with that do you know?
01:30No I don't know. Spent it wisely we hope. So at the end of the tractor run there's a bit of a
01:37fate going on isn't there in Kinnerley? Yeah. And what's going to be there? We've got a bit of food stalls and
01:43so you kind of when you came up with the idea and raising money for your school did you think it
01:48was going to be a wonderful event or were you thinking you know what I'd quite like this to be
01:51every year? Every year. Yeah yeah. So how many tractors did you have last year? That was 40 to 50 was it?
02:00About 28 last year. So yeah so it's going bigger so it's a bit yeah not far off Dublin then that's
02:05the plan. And what sort of route you're doing then? So do you start here at Kinnerley? Start at the Royal
02:11Helm in Edgley and then go for all the villages and end up in Kinnerley. Oh yeah so what sort of
02:18distance you're doing then overall? 30 miles. 30 miles and how long will that take in a tractor then?
02:24roughly what are you thinking? About an hour. Just to an hour. Yeah yeah with a little stop off
02:28refreshments I hope along the way. Hopefully. So how old are you Zach? 12. So can you drive a tractor?
02:38You know what you're doing don't you on a farm? Yeah. Yeah yeah. So mom can you drive a tractor?
02:44No. Because it's kind of it's a family farm isn't it? Yeah. So um have you have you been up there have
02:49you been a paid pillion like while he's been driving? Yeah but he's been taking me because it's quite nice
02:55sometimes when the sunset's going as well. Ah lovely. It's quite nice to spend some time with him as well. Yeah
02:59yeah and it's in his blood isn't it? He wants this is what he wants to do farming. It's you know.
03:04He wants to be a farmer 100%. Yeah yeah great stuff. So we're raising money for a good cause 40 to 50
03:11tractors involved and if people want to find out a bit more in terms of like what which village is
03:16and what route. Have you got like a little page set up have you? Yeah we've got a page on Facebook
03:21Kindly Coiner's Tractor Run. Cool. We've put the map on there so it'll go through Nescliff it'll go
03:26through not many Facebooks but we're trying to try and get involved in other villages. Yeah that's nice
03:33that's nice. So I guess Zach you'd welcome anyone to check that map out and um come and kind of give
03:39you a wave and show you the support and perhaps chuck a few coins in any buckets that are knocking about.
03:43Well great stuff Zach and we wish you all the best with your future career down here on the farm. Cheers buddy.
