Learn Lambing
Country Smallholding
|January 2018
This month: a lambing course in the South West.
In the darkest depths of winter, what better way to spend a day than learning about lambing at South Yeo Farm East near Okehampton, Devon? This course which runs on January 13 and 21 (as well as later in the year), is ideal for anyone wanting to brush up on their existing skills as well as those looking to start entirely from scratch. If you’ve no intention of keeping sheep or indeed lambing in the future, it might just make a nice day out.
