Farming in Eryri: Voices from the land


Listen Later

This episode is produced in partnership with the Farmers’ Union of Wales and focuses on agriculture in Eryri – a sector that lies at the heart of the Park’s history, culture, and landscape.

Agriculture has shaped Eryri over centuries, and in this episode we visit three farms to hear stories from the people who live and work on the land every day.

Rhys Owen, our Head of Conservation, Trees and Agriculture, visits Teleri and Ned at Hafod y Llyn Isaf to discuss their sustainable farming practices and their connection to this unique landscape.

Next, Gwynedd Watkin from the Farmers’ Union of Wales travels to Nant Gwynant, to Castell, to speak with Elgan Jones about the challenges of farming, the Countryside Code, and the benefits of working in the area.

Finally, we visit the family farm of Foel Ddu, where Gwilym, Ioan, and Elain share their experiences of farming as a family and continuing the tradition across generations.

Join us for an engaging and honest conversation about life on the farm in Eryri today; the pride, the pressures, and the passion that keep agriculture alive at the heart of the Park.
