Hey everyone,
Just popping a quick intro here. I've been keeping an eye on TAS for quite a while now, but finally decided to join the forum!
My name is James, aka the Solway Shepherd. I quit my office job back in 2014 to follow my dreams of becoming a farmer. After a year working on a beef farm in Gloucestershire, we moved up to my girlfriend's family farm in South West Scotland. I bought some sheep in January of 2015, lambed them in the March and now have 75 including a small flock of pedigree Lleyn sheep. We also have a small, but ever growing, flock of chickens and a beautiful sheepdog called Non.
Alongside working with our sheep flock, I do extra work as a contract shepherd, have my own blog (
www.solwayshepherd.co.uk) and write for a number of magazines including Farmers Guardian and the NFU's Student Farmer.
I'm always happy to help and keen to assist those also looking to follow their farming dreams!
Please do say hello and if you have any questions, ask away!
James
