Description

[ref]

Agriculture is the very backbone of this country, stitching together the fabric of our landscapes from the rugged machair of the Hebrides to the fertile fields rolling out from Aberdeen towards the Howe o' the Mearns. It is about more than just food; it is about our heritage, the hard graft of the crofting life, and the quiet dignity of a well-tended glen. Whether you are running a sprawling farm in the north-east or just looking to move on some surplus kit from your smallholding, this is where our local food and farming culture finds its voice.


Who should post here?

If you have skin in the game, this is your space. We are calling on our local farmers, crofters, market gardeners, and rural hobbyists to share what they have. Whether you are clearing out the shed to make room for new machinery or you have a surplus of local produce that’s far too good to go to waste, we want to see it here. It is about keeping things local—cutting out the middleman and making sure that high-quality gear and produce stays within our own communities, from the Grampians down to the Borders.

What belongs here?

  • Farm machinery and vintage tractors (that old Fergie still has life in her yet!)
  • Livestock and working dogs
  • Fencing supplies, tools, and heavy-duty workshop gear
  • Seed potatoes, seasonal produce, and high-quality livestock feed
  • Estate management supplies and equestrian equipment
  • Crofting tools and traditional hand implements

How to list well

Be straight with people. If you are selling a tractor, tell us the hours on the clock and when it was last serviced—don't hide the rust if it’s just cosmetic. Clear, honest photos are worth their weight in gold. For livestock, be clear about health status and lineage; our buyers in the North East appreciate knowing exactly what they are getting before they make the trip out to the farm gate. Mention the council area so folks know how far they have to haul their trailer.

A note for the Granite City and beyond

Living in Aberdeen City, we are lucky to be on the doorstep of some of the finest agricultural land in the UK. Even if you are based right near the city centre, there is always a need for quality kit or local produce to stock the pantry or manage a patch of land further out towards the shire. Let's make sure our listings reflect the pride we take in our industry—keep it honest, keep it local, and let’s keep the gears turning.
