The Ploughing Championships is one of the highlights of the farming year and claims a special place in our hearts.

With this year’s event just around the corner, we’re taking a trip down memory lane and asking you to send us your favourite memories from Ploughing Championships gone by.

Maybe you met the love of your life in Athy in 2011 or in Killarney in 1954. Perhaps you got lost on the way to the carpark and ran into Marty Morrissey. You could have been Queen of the Plough or indeed a champion ploughman. Either way, we want to hear your stories.

Share your tales and photos with us and the best will be published in the Irish Farmers Journal. Our favourite will win a One-For-All voucher worth €100.

Send us your entries via Twitter using the hashtag #PloughingMemories, email ploughingmemories@farmersjournal.ie, WhatsApp 086 836-6465 or message us on Facebook. You can also enter your photos using Snapchat – our username is farmersjournal.

Get reminiscing!
