Welcome
Welcome to the Royal East Berkshire Agricultural Association, which has promoted excellence in farming for 180 years.
We have an active programme of professional and social events, including our annual Ploughing Match and Show in September which attracts around 40 modern and traditional ploughs and hundreds of spectators.
If you support the aims and events of the association, please join us as a member.
About Us
“For the encouragement of deserving craftsmen, and for awarding Prizes for skills in Agricultural pursuits and for the betterment of agriculture generally.
The area covered is that which lies within a 15 mile radius of Maidenhead Town Hall.
The whole of a farm will be eligible for entry if any portion of a holding is within this area.”
Ploughing Match and Show
165th Annual Ploughing Match & Dog Show
“A wonderful atmosphere and a fun packed day for all the family – another year and another fantastic show”
We were once again blessed with lovely weather and had a fantastic turnout of visitors (over 1000). Our ploughmen and women also turned out in full force, their horses, vintage and modern tractors and ploughs are always a wonderful sight to see and this year was no exception.

At our REBAA AGM held at Fernygrove Farm Shop & Coffee Shop on Monday 27th January 2020, the Association was delighted to present two cheques totalling £3013.00, from funds raised throughout 2019. The cheques were presented by Sybil Avann to Sarah Bissell, who is the Director of Fundraising and Marketing for Thames Hospice. Sarah showed the members site plans outlining the new Thames Hospice buildings and explained how the Hospice works and the facilities that will be available.
We are now only a couple of days before our 166th REBAA Ploughing Match and Show.
