The Royal Highland Education Trust will also have various activities as well as giving children the chance to milk Daisy the cow.

There will be a storyteller, a sheep shearing demonstration, a decorated boiled egg or vegetable animal competition and lots of scarecrows too.

Jenny Thomson from Courses for Cooks will be running two cookery demonstrations.

In the morning, she will demonstrate how to make homemade potato scones and the perfect omelette.

For the afternoon demonstration, Jenny will be making strawberry shortcake and looking for some child volunteers to help with the decorating.

Other attractions include terrier racing, highland dancing and vintage tractors and a variety of trade stands featuring everything from tractors to toys.

There’s the craft marquee with a cookery show and Glasgow Science Centre’s Body Works On Tour team.

Entries are taken from 1.30pm on the day with judging starting at 2pm.

The show, from 9am to 5pm, is held at the farm with permission of the Thomson family.

Admission costs £10 for adults, £5 for OAPs with children under 14 admitted free. Parking is also free.
