NSA North Sheep has announced trade stand applications are now open for the 2023 event to be held in Northumberland.

Trade stand applications are now open for the north of England’s well-renowned sheep event, NSA North Sheep. The event, organised by the National Sheep Association, will see in the region of 7,000 people pass through the gates of the 2023 host farm, Bradford House Farm in Northumberland, with kind permission of the Woodman family, on Wednesday 7th June 2023.

Sponsored by Hexham and Northern Marts, the event will allow visitors to see some of the very best of Northumbrian stock and explore how Willie and Christine Woodman, and son Martin, manage their traditional mixed farm.

Commenting on the trade exhibition aspect of North Sheep, event organiser, Heather Stoney-Grayshon, said: “Understandably we are all very excited to announce the 2023 NSA North sheep is now very much open for business. As always, we have a selection of indoor and outdoor trade spaces suitable for all businesses within the sheep and wider agricultural industries, which can all be booked on our website. NSA North Sheep is a true celebration of the industry, from field to fork, and it is a privilege to welcome others that help strengthen that chain.

“I’d also like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to our mainline sponsor, Hexham and Northern Marts for their support for next year’s event, which would not be possible without their generous backing.”

Since the 1800’s, Hexham and Northern Marts have been the north east of England’s pre-eminent auction company. Host farmer Willie Woodman regularly sells and purchases stock through Hexham Auction Mart, and commenting as to why they were so keen to be involved Rob Addison, Managing Director, said: “Hexham and Northern Marts are delighted to be mainline sponsors of the North Sheep Event. We know that  those visiting both Bradford House Farm and Northumberland will see the very best of Northumbrian stock in a wonderful part of the world.

“We look forward to welcoming both existing and new customers onto our stand to meet with our staff and to enjoy what we know will be a terrific event and advert for the sheep industry.”

Attracting businesses and individuals from all aspects of the sheep industry, NSA North Sheep offers an excellent platform for showcasing the latest industry trends, research and developments which will help farmers to continue to drive their enterprises forward and face the challenges currently facing the industry.
