Clear signs of improvement however
Feeding animals, growing vegetables and spinning wool is all in a day’s work for a farmer – but 11-year-old Joe is younger than most.This weekend will be extra special for him as he is appearing on a show he loves – BBC One’s Countryfile.
Now he pays for his own stock, feed, shearing, and even vet bills. He gets up early to check his lambing cam and to feed his animals before school, and he continues with his passion again when he gets home. Joe has built his own lambing tunnel on his grandparents’ land and will appear in Countryfile’s Lambing Special at 6pm on Sunday, April 30.
His mum Clare said: “It is magic and Joe loves being in front of the camera. It is something he has always watched and he loves Adam Henson, so to be part of it is a big thing for him and for us as a family.”
