Listen Later

Today we welcome Lel Williams onto the R2Kast. Lel shares her journey of managing a small flock of sheep in North Wales, where she balances farming with her personal life. Despite not considering herself "famous," she has built a strong online presence by showcasing the day-to-day realities of farming and the beauty of the countryside. 🐑


Lel delves into the challenges of being a social media influencer in the farming world. She reflects on the fine line between sharing authentic farm life and dealing with the misconceptions and criticism that often come from those outside the farming community. Her candid approach to addressing controversial topics, like the realities of sheep management, has resonated with many followers. 📲


She also discusses the unexpected growth of her social media following. From posting videos during the COVID-19 pandemic to reaching a wider audience, Lel has used her platform to educate and engage viewers, bringing them along on her farming journey and offering insight into the hard work and dedication required in agriculture. 🌱


Finally, Lel touches on the importance of family and community in her farming life. She works alongside her family, especially her Taid, emphasising how their support has been crucial in managing the farm. Her stories provide a heartfelt glimpse into the personal side of farming, where tradition, care, and connection are at the forefront. 👪


Enjoy!
