Where it came from

During her year as Master in 2001–02, HRH The Princess Royal helped the Company establish a Scholarship Fund, marking both the 50th anniversary of the Farmers Company and Her Late Majesty The Queen’s Golden Jubilee. Awards have been made every year since, apart from 2021 when Covid prevented them.
