Final Information Farming Weekend 14 - 16 July 2017 The Idea This is a fantastic weekend away together. We are going to take a select group to stay on our friends’ farm in Wiltshire. We will be doing farm work all day on the Saturday, and a bit more on the Sunday. On Sunday morning we will have our own church at the farm. Come expecting to work hard, and you will have great fun. The work is not compulsory; we just want everyone to experience “farm life”. Accommodation We shall be sleeping in tents, with showers and toilets available in the camping barn. When you arrive, the first job is to put up the tents. Bring a pillow, sleeping bag & karrimat or an air bed. Tent too, if you have one! If you don’t have a tent, please talk to us. Food Let us know of any special dietary needs. Please bring a cake to share. We will be eating outside in the garden under shelter. Travel We’ll assume people will sort their own, but happy to coordinate lift shares for people near each other, just ask if this helps you. Cost The cost is £30, for food, camping accommodation, farm expenses. This is a non-profit w/e, we simply want folk to benefit from the experience. Safety This is an important issue on a working farm. Clear advice will be given, however parents need to also assume responsibility for their children and take care! Clothing You need to bring scruffy clothes, and have some long sleeves/long trousers for working in the crops, and shifting hay bales. Nothing smart required. Please bring a pair of gardening gloves. Wellies might be useful and a waterproof, as we can’t guarantee the weather! But…. It’s often hot & sunny, so bring a hat & sun-cream.

The Society of Friends in Wiltshire1
The Society of Friends in Wiltshire1 OR the work of George Fox in Wiltshire see Wilts Notes <§ Queries, ii, 125-9, and The Journal of George Fox, Fed. N. Penney (Cambridge Edn.). The subsequent history of the Quakers in the county can be traced from the MS. records of the various quarterly and monthly meetings, from the Friends' Book of Meetings published annually since 1789 and the List of Members of the Quarterly Meeting of Bristol and Somerset, published annually since 1874. For the MS. records see Jnl. of Friends' Hist. Soc., iv, 24. The records are now at Friends House, Euston Road, London. From the beginning of the eighteenth century, the Quakers' story is of a decline which was gradual until 1750 and thereafter very rapid. The Methodists and Moravians largely supplanted them. An interesting example of the change over from Quakerism to Methodism is to be found in Thomas R. Jones' The Departed Worthy (1857). This book tells the life story of Charles Maggs, a distinguished Melksham Methodist. When Maggs first went to Melksham just after 1800 he made the acquaintance of two Methodists named Abraham Shewring and Thomas Rutty. The family names of Shewring and Rutty both occur in Melksham Quaker records between 1700 and 1750. Even more interesting is the fact that Abraham Shewring was known as " the Quaker Methodist " and that Charles Maggs found that " the quiet manner in which the service was conducted scarcely suited his warm and earnest heart "* WILTSHIRE QUARTERLY MEETING, c. 1667-1785 By 1680 the number of Quaker meetings in Wilts had reached its maximum.
