    Farmers and Universal Credit

    This seems to be a very loaded article, for the purpose of discussing/clouding judgement on a specific topic that has always been controversial - it’s no secret that people have very opposing views on the benefits system and it’s claimants - Yet, I don’t believe enough clarity is given on the...

    How beneficial is Digital Marketing to the Farming sector?

    I’m currently studying a Google accredited Digital Marketing course and I’m wondering what scope there is for the benefits of a good Digital Marketing strategy within the agriculture and farming sector? What’s your opinion? Is it starting to become vital for farming businesses to have some sort...

    Farmers earn more from YouTube than their crops

    There is potential there. Even if you were to emulate a lot of the very successful formats on the platform. As long as you have charisma, your content is engaging and entertaining you can grow a following on YouTube easily. Most of the time, to be productive and get content out, you require a...

    Too fat to farm?

    National guard won’t do anything, all of the young people are already overweight and education is preaching only tolerance, not balance. It would likely be classed as fat shaming and hurt the feelings of this new generation of young people! The agenda of “everyone must be free to choose and be...

    Little Introduction into our family and if there’s a way to connect at all?

    Completely and I hope that I’m giving off the correct tone in my responses. I’m happy to listen and learn, we won’t get anywhere if we don’t humble ourselves and try to approach this with open ears and eyes. I’m originally from Cornwall, but lived in the north for over ten years now, I know how...

    Little Introduction into our family and if there’s a way to connect at all?

    Yes, essentially this is what we’re wanting to achieve. I’m aware there are opportunities out there, even if they’re hard to come by. My thinking is more, I’m not in the know and don’t have connections within the local area but perhaps there are people on here that do and would be willing to...

    Little Introduction into our family and if there’s a way to connect at all?

    I understand that. Honestly, it was just a way for me to introduce me and my family to the community and see if there were any open opportunities in my area or if there might be someone in here who knows someone who would be interested in entertaining our situation, that was all. I was upfront...

    Little Introduction into our family and if there’s a way to connect at all?

    I’ve milked a cow a couple of times. We are more skilled in the social media and digital side of business but I understand that’s a reach. I know all of this was a reach but my thinking was, perhaps there is someone out there who is willing to give us a chance, even just meet us and see what...

    Little Introduction into our family and if there’s a way to connect at all?

    Yes, in our area they average about £1500/1700. The farm house we visited prior to this post was a very spacious three bed and was £1000. That was comfortable for us, hence our consideration. My thought process was more “shy bairns don’t get sweets” so thought I’d present us as an option on...

    Little Introduction into our family and if there’s a way to connect at all?

    It appears there might be some confusion about my intentions. I want to clarify that I'm/we’re not looking for a handout. Rather, I'm seeking an opportunity for my family to immerse ourselves in farm life and contribute meaningfully to it - hence why, in my initial post, I mentioned my wife and...

    Little Introduction into our family and if there’s a way to connect at all?

    Yes, I can imagine - It’s difficult everywhere at the moment. I’d say the biggest stumbling block for us presently is financial, as it is for most at the moment. Just looking at houses in urban areas within a 15mile radius of Middlesbrough, the average rental price for a somewhat spacious four...
