Owned a small fibre flock of sheep for the last ten years, currently completing my first season lambing on commercial farms and very eager to gain more experience in different set ups.
I have common sense, a good level of fitness, excellent time keeping and a strong work ethic. Im well organised, self sufficient, and able to blend into teamwork easily.
