Amazing how the farm seems bigger once you start sub dividing.
Happy Mother's Day! Early shift for TRIPLETS and quads 😜,! Just grass for these girls.. Had it tested. 13 ME and 20% and there's plenty of it so far🤞@GrasscheckGB #MothersDay #MothersDay2022 #sheep #sheep365 #Grass #pasture #rotationalgrazing – at Scotland, United Kingdom

Three weeks till lambing and ewes back on rotation.. Amazed by how much water they are already drinking. So water troughs neglected over winter getting a good scrub and shock of beneficial bacteria from @PruexLtd.
As usual, trailing behind @totallyewesome and @montaltfarm in the pre lambing rotation stakes #sheep #Grass #pasture #lambing2022

On the move to next block of bale grazing. Great to be involved in Graze Debate and will be tuning in tonight for next instalment
Another great chat about grazing last night - this time myself (Poppy) alongside my knowledgeable colleague, Lorna Galloway. We talked setting up rotational grazing, infrastructure and feed budgeting. For those that missed it, recording here: ow.ly/wxPt50DCrlk

Agreed! Definitely take the time to watch this.. Gives great perspective on global issue.
Excellent video for farmers and consumers to understand the that the livestock emissions is definitely more complex that we currently understand. access.sacredcow.info

We’re still in tier 4 and completely closed. We are missing everyone in our busy little pool and cozy pods.If you’re looking for an alternative Christmas present, pop onto our website to buy vouchers! They can be used for swims, pod stays, pumpkin tickets & lambing experiences. – at Arnprior, Scotland

Minette Batters(NFU) - For Boris Johnson "to sign up to a trade deal which results in opening our ports, shelves & fridges to food which would be illegal to produce here would not only be morally bankrupt, it would be the work of the insane."

No fuss, no fads. Ordinary food is good enough. Confused by all the mixed messages about diet? Choose a common-sense approach to food and enjoy a healthy balanced diet without missing out on key food groups or nutrients. RT if you agree. ordinaryfoods.co.uk #OrdinaryFood

Hi George. Misleading globalized figures again oblivious to ‘local’ circumstances. Eg; beef cattle raised on deforested land is responsible for 12 times more greenhouse gas emissions than cows reared on natural pastures so choose ‘low impact’ beef not ‘rainforest’ beef!
