Lorna Burdge runs Waterhayne Farms in Devon with her husband, helped out by their three children. She is on a mission to share her farming story, to help bridge the gap between consumers and food producers. She regularly speaks in person at local schools and keeps children engaged through Farmer Time, an online platform that offers video calls between farmers and classrooms.


Lorna also loves to share daily activities on the farm in Devon on her social media channel, from bringing the cows in from the fields, taking us through the milking parlour, feeding the calves and general jobs around the farm.


In this episode, Lorna talks about:

  • confidently communicating about farming
  • educating the next generation about agriculture
  • the joy of drinking fresh milk in coffee
