MALVERN A & P SHOW Preparations are well under way for the 126th Malvern A&P Show being held at the Sheffield Domain on Saturday, March 22, 8am until 5pm. The theme for this year’s show is ‘A Rural Fun Day’. This year the Tasman Regional Young Farmer Competition will run on the morning of the show. This involves eight competitors competing for the title and to go through to the National Young Farmer of the Year Competition. The younger kids get to compete as well, with High School Teams and an Agrikids competition. Other events are the Livestock competitions (horses, stock and station horse, cattle, sheep, alpacas, poultry), dog trials, cooking, homecraft, flowers, photography, vegetables and pet lamb and pet dog competitions.
