Send Lizzie a message!

Join me, Lizzie, and my corgi Willow, embark on our first on-location adventure, heading to the beautiful county of Herefordshire to chat with a very special guest: Ally Hunter Blair, a familiar face to many from the TV series Born Mucky and First Time Farmers!

For the first episode, we chat what's in season, hear our first listener question and delve into the heart of modern farming with Ally, exploring the ever-present challenges of weather and the exciting potential of agricultural technology. 

Ally shares his unique perspective as we uncover the concept of farm diversification, particularly through the lens of a charming glamping business that he runs. Discover the secrets behind creating memorable guest experiences on a working farm, the complexities of navigating regulations when branching out, and the financial realities of managing multiple enterprises.

We also delve into the deeper meaning behind diversifying with purpose, sharing innovative ideas and reflecting on the vital role of community and resilience in the farming world. Hear about the joys of connecting with visitors and the enduring optimism that drives those who work the land, all from Ally's inspiring perspective in Herefordshire.

If you've ever been curious about the realities of farming or the creative ways rural businesses are adapting and thriving, this episode is a fantastic starting point as Willow and I begin our travels.
