Farming background

Worked on my family run farm from a very young age where I became well versed in tractor driving and utilising specific machinery. I am very experienced in the hay,haylage and silage process as have done it annually since I was 7. This led me completing a Level 2 agriculture certificate and doing an apprenticeship in dairy. Alongside all livestock aspects, I assisted in completing the silage harvest. When this farm sold up, I moved onto a beef and sheep farm where I was in charge of the majority of calving, lambing,bedding up etc.
