R2Kast - People in Food and Farming/All In

R2Kast 310 - Colin and Yasmine on Sheep, Markets, and Travel


Listen Later

Today we welcome my dad, Colin Currie, back for his second appearance on the podcast and my partner, Yasmine, for her first! 🏡🎤 We chat about our journey into farming, from Colin’s lifelong connection to the land to Yas’ unexpected route into shepherding after a childhood love for animals. 🐏💚


Colin updates us on his ongoing mission to visit every livestock market in the UK, sharing highlights and insights from his experiences across the country. 📍🚜 He also reminisces about his time as Chair of Arran Young Farmers 40 years ago and the importance of youth organisations in rural communities. 🌾🧑‍🌾


Meanwhile, Yas tells us about Dorothy, the Dorset sheep who stole her heart and now calls Arran home! 🐑💖 She shares her path from aspiring vet nurse to full-time shepherd, proving that a non-farming background doesn’t mean you can’t find a way in! 🏞️✨


And, of course, we reflect on some of our biggest adventures—including THAT boat trip in New Zealand! ⛴️🌊 Was it thrilling or utterly terrifying? Depends on who you ask! 😅


Enjoy! 😃🎙️


Thank you to Howden Rural for the continued support. 🙌
