Arrival at Shallowford Farm

We arrived at Shallowford around 3pm and were met by Timber (the resident dog), Debbie and the Shallowford team. We had a quick tour of the farm and then were taken to our rooms. After which, we took a walk (with various detours to look at flowers and plants) to the neighbouring farm. Will (the farmer) met us by the cows and talked about silage and the costs involved with keeping the cattle inside over winter. We then walked back. Next, we got geared-up and mucked out the animals. Back inside for shepherds pie and sticky toffee pudding, then a mathematical problem about straw.
