Over a cuppa in their Shed at Farrington Farm, Men’s Shed Midsomer Norton were recently asked by farmers, Tish and Andy Jeffrey, if they would construct a selfie frame in good time for the Open Farm Sunday on 9th June, when the farm will be open to show the public everything they are proud of at the award-winning venue.

This family-friendly event will host live demonstrations, tours, tractor rides, a huge straw pit, bug hunting, a craft tent and Tractor Ted will be attending with his tractor-shaped bouncy castle – plus much more!

Not only that, but Men’s Shed Midsomer Norton will have their own stand, offering recycled tools and the like at minimal cost, and lots of their own hand-crafted ideas for sale. Some of the items on sale will be in kit-form to allow children of various ages and abilities to complete, under supervision! You can also find out what Men’s Shed does as part of the Midsomer Norton Community Trust and maybe consider joining yourself.

This promises to be a great day out, and you could even try your photographic skills on the new selfie frame yourself!
