Farming background

Family Farm (Background / Upbringing) - Sheep & Poultry

Various farm work, alongside my parents and independently. This primarily includes some tractor work, e.g topping, hay making, straw carting; work on a Bobcat and Quadbike; picking, grading and packaging eggs with day-to-day duties of free-range hens, and all sheep work throughout the year. I am competent in driving with trailers, for transporting livestock, equipment and carting bales. Having grown up and been involved (still involved) on the farm, I have gained skills and experience over the years with increased responsibilities, which now come as natural instinctive actions to me.

Off our own farm, I have worked for a nearby Shepherd and done outdoor lambing in Wales.
