I am from a farming background and have lived on both a dairy farm and a sheep and beef farm. This has led me to get involved in lambing time and other sheep work at home. I have, however, milked over 200 cows on another farm, local to me, in a herringbone swing-over parlour.
I have also been a member of Young Farmers, taking part in various activities like livestock judging and farm viewings, as well as arts and crafts and the annual district rally.
