Montgomeryshire Senedd Member, Russell George MS, will be proudly hosting Montgomeryshire Day at the Senedd on Tuesday 11th November 2025, celebrating the very best of the county’s businesses, produce, and community organisations.

The event which is being organised in conjunction with the Farmers’ Union of Wales, will showcase the strength and diversity of Montgomeryshire, offering Members of the Senedd and guests the opportunity to meet local producers, learn more about the county’s industries, and sample some of the finest food and drink that Mid Wales has to offer.

Organisations and businesses from across Montgomeryshire are expected to take part, reflecting the area’s entrepreneurial spirit and strong community roots. Together these businesses will ensure that Montgomeryshire Day is a feast for the senses, giving Members of the Senedd the chance to see, taste and enjoy the exceptional quality of local produce. It is also an important reminder of the contribution that food and drink businesses make to the rural economy, sustaining jobs, supporting communities, and promoting Wales on the wider stage.

Visitors to Montgomeryshire Day will enjoy a showcase of the county’s food and drink, with contributions from businesses across Montgomeryshire. Their presence will give attendees a chance to sample some of Montgomeryshire’s finest produce and see first-hand the quality and creativity of local businesses.

In addition to the daytime celebrations, Russell George will also co-host a special evening event with the Farmers’ Union of Wales to mark the Union’s 70th anniversary. The event will celebrate the FUW’s important role in supporting Welsh farmers over seven decades and its continuing contribution to rural life in Montgomeryshire and across Wales.

Businesses or organisations who would like to take part are encouraged to contact Russell George MS.

Commenting, Mr George said:

“Montgomeryshire Day is a fantastic opportunity to showcase the rich talent and first class produce of our county here at the Senedd.

“I am delighted to be able to highlight the best of what Montgomeryshire has to offer and to ensure our businesses and organisations gain the recognition they deserve on a national stage.

“I am also very pleased to be joining the FUW in celebrating their 70th anniversary. The Union has been a steadfast voice for farmers in Montgomeryshire and across Wales, and this milestone is an important moment to recognise the contribution of Welsh farming to our communities and economy.”
