Some details about Us

The Ford & Fordson Association was founded in 2004 by Kelsey Publishing. With their encouragement the Club became fully independent in 2016. The Ford & Fordson Association is your Club, and its success is totally the result of its members support and hard work. Make no mistake it is wholly reliant on your backing and without it, it would cease to exist. That is not to say it is all work and no play, both members and those on the committee alike enjoy friendships built up over the years, meeting likeminded people at shows, road runs, ploughing matches and other events. Not to mention the immensely valuable information freely available to members on virtually any subject from a particular technical problem to where to track down an elusive part.

Committee members do not receive expenses for traveling to events or sustenance, they are only reimbursed for direct ‘out of pocket’ expenditure on the Club’s behalf such as stationery and postage. This is why, even before Covid, we held committee meetings at shows to reduce travelling costs and in the restricted period by zoom. It is also why we decided to move the AGM, with members agreement, to a show event to encourage member attendance and thereby reduce costs too.

As the cost of living rises and global warming becomes undeniable, we are all under pressure to reduce consumption. Fuel is particularly expensive and in future the Club will attend less events that have several of the committee present. This will mean that if you wish the Club to have a stand at your favourite show you must speak to your local representative to organise it, or simply consider doing it yourself. Often, I expect, committee members will also be there and will certainly make materials available for the event. In some areas this is already happening and works very well, but there is no doubt this will become the new normal. With increasing membership numbers and an excellent magazine, your Club’s future is bright and with your continuing help and support the Club will flourish, BUT your involvement is crucial. If, as a Club member, you wish to become a representative in your home county, please contact our secretary.

  Ford and Fordson plough day

  For our annual Ford & Fordson Team Day last year (September 16th), we were guests in Nieuwe Pekela, with the Veninga family. The weather conditions were ideal, with lots of sun and a temperature of about 24°C.

  We ploughed on peat colonial sandy soil and the crop that had grown on it was fibre hemp. This was difficult to plough under because hemp is very tough, so you had to have the discs and shares sharp. For example, there were ploughmen who dismantled their front furrows to prevent bulldozing.

  Surprising winners emerged; Jan Klaas Dam won the parallel ploughing, and this was his first time participating – a handsome win. This year the Piet Schoon Trophy went to Roel Mennega from Eext after he achieved the most points of all. Piet’s son didn’t do too badly, either, as he came 4th in the circulating teams. Menno de Graaf brought his 1926 Fordson F, which was the oldest tractor at the event, and Berend Mighels was also competing with his 1944 Fordson N.

  We don’t see these tractors very often on a ploughing day like this. Next time we want to organise another team day in Drenthe! Jans Stevens and Foppe Drent.

  Isle of wight classic road run

  The Isle of Wight Classic Tractors Charity Road Run took place on December 27th and, thankfully, we

  enjoyed a mostly dry day despite the forecast of rain and gales.

  We met at a well-known DIY store’s car park which, at that time of morning, was reasonably clear of cars. That was just as well as we had another record turnout, with 85 tractors of all shapes and sizes in attendance; ranging from little grey Fergies to a massive, 450hp John Deere HR10. There was, of course, a good collection of Fordson, Ford and New Holland tractors as well, including everything from Majors and Super Majors plus 1000 Series models through to 40 and TM Series machines. There was one particular newcomer – a TN 95F – that was an interesting tractor that’s used for orchard work.

  The convoy followed a zig-zag route over the west of the island, taking in the villages of Porchfield, Newtown, Carisbrooke, Bowcombe, Gatcombe, Chale Green, Shorwell and Brighstone, then onto the Military Road at the south-west corner of the island where the view of the stormy sea was spectacular.
