The world has gone mad & we are all anxious and fearful but farmers lives aren't really that much different ... Yet pollution etc is lowering daily...

Rewind from the ewes lambing and you have to tup them. This means release the boys and watch the madness that unfolds...

Lambing time if THE most intense time of the year for all farmers but equally the most rewarding , you have nurtured the ewes through the hard winter and got them to this point. It's such hard work and we begin lambing when the weather is usually dark and miserable and then slowly it becomes spring, so from full waterproofs and wellies and end lambing time in shorts and a vest, it's just INVIGORATING.

As it's international women's Day I thought I'd be stupid not to celebrate women in farming! I could spout on and on til the cows come home about how farming is a man's world and how it's so unfair but what good would come of that ?( Def have one of those on my IGTV!!) Instead I'm focussing on the positives and how we are fully smashing #farmlife on the daily!

I feel it's best to start at the plate and then work my way back so I can engage fully with you and not just push you in at the deep end.

A little welcome and intro about The Chief Shepherdess , what I want to achieve with this podcast and my Instagram and also some funny stories to break the ice....
