Hi

I was wondering if anyone follows other farming forums and if so which ones?

I've tried to join the British Farming Forum a couple of times, but they never accept me!

I have tried joining British farming forum a few months back but their registration process doesn't seem to work.  This is evidenced by the fact that their newest member has been robertpattinson for as long as I can remember.

Anyone out there a member already and could start a thread on there telling them ?

I also have a number of facebook groups and the beekeeping forum that I pop on every now and again. This one has been my daily read for the past 6 months since I got  my smallholding though  :thumbsup:

I used to be on an american one ('backyardherds' i think) before I found TAS, still look in occasionally, they changed it and I seem to struggle with password now.
was quite useful at times.

Actually I'm not certain I haven't tried TFF already with the same result as BFF, but I'll have another go...

I love TAS  but after 2 years am finding the same old questions keep coming up (which I'm happy to answer ) but thought it might be nice to have an alternative, focusing more on farming issues, to check into too.

I have had the same experience as Sally....it appears to me they are simply not administering their web site.
