EIEIO Challenge

The YFC EIEIO Challenge

The EIEIO Challenge has now closed for entries but you can still get involved by recording a video to share during National Young Farmers' Week.

Promote your YFC’s connections to food and farming and be in with a chance of impressing our special judge Kaleb Cooper and winning some great prizes!

We’re looking for YFCs or individuals to record a short Reel or TikTok that celebrates their connection to food and farming. You should pick a topic you or your members feel passionate about that helps to promote EIEIO’s five pillars! 

There's information below and you can download our EIEIO Toolkit, which includes a special message from Kaleb.

  • Engage - Make a video that engages the general public.
  • Inform - Tell people what’s happening in the food and farming industries.
  • Educate - Explain where our food comes from and promote local produce (#HomeGrown).
  • Inspire - Promote the varied careers in the industry.
  • Opportunity - Share the opportunities to get involved.

EIEIO Toolkit

Come on young farmers! Join me in sharing your farming stories and celebrating Great British produce. EIEIO!

I’m really excited to be backing the EIEIO Challenge as encouraging young people into farming is so important to me. It’s a positive way for YFC members to share their passion about food and farming with people outside the industry.

How to Enter

Make a 90 second video (max 2 mins on TikTok) that can be shared on social media during this year’s National Young Farmers’ Week (9-13 October 2023), supported by Tama – and that could also be shared with your local school to inspire children about the industry.

There's ideas on how to hook up with a school inside our toolkit above, as well as loads of guidance on how to record your video.

Submit your entries using our online form and follow the terms and conditions. This challenge is now closed.
