ABOUT ME

I’m 32 years old and I’m a sheep farmer from Ayrshire in South West Scotland, which is why I have such a strong accent! I was born and raised on a sheep farm watching my dad who was the shepherd.

At 18 I went away from farming to work in the city (something I still do) and at 23 (2013) I decided I wanted to do something for some extra money so I went on a sheep shearing course. The hardest thing I’ll ever do was learning to shear sheep. [shudders thinking about it]

I shore whilst on my holidays from work for 2 years and then in 2015 my dad died so I decided to get my own sheep so I could continue working with sheep as it was something I loved doing. From there it escalated quickly from my first 4 sheep in my mum’s garden to now running around 850 breeding ewes.

I shore over 19,000 sheep this season in the UK and have my own shearing run which lets you see many different farms in the summer months.

A few years ago I bought myself a sheep pregnancy scanner and have been building up my run since then.

I watched a few farm vlogs on YouTube and decided I could have a go and now here we are!

Thanks for watching my videos and please subscribe if you want to see more in future.

  • What a fun pumpkin patch. Such diversity they have added to make it more than just picking a pumpkin. Love it.
  • @haggielady
    It was weird seeing this in Scotland! In the US, we've been doing this for years. But the pumpkin gun was new to me. You always have such a variety of neat things to show us. Thank you.
  • @westzed23
    This is a great video. I love seeing other farm operations. Here they've turned a pumpkin patch into a thriving business. Also hiring local folk for the duration of the event. Thank you Cammy. 🎃🍁🙂❤
  • What a fantastic idea! Pumpkin patches here on Long Island (NY) make so much money selling pumpkins - good thing you have the sheep to eat the extras, it’s a big waste problem here unfortunately- more people need to make the extra pumpkins available to backyard chickens maybe.
  • I remember visiting them their first year with a photographer friend Duncan Clark. I didn't see how it was going to work but it has been a huge success. All credit to them. Amazing as they are tenants. Hope you enjoyed your pumpkin soup.
  • Thank you for sharing your country with us. I love the idea of visiting other farms and seeing the scenery. I know I won’t ever get to travel over there, so you’re my eyes and ears 😀 Greetings to Lizzie, Jock and baby. 🍁
  • Fantastic ideas,- working with our beautiful country and of course weather!❤ Good luck to everyone who tries!👍🏻
  • @barbalbers8920
    What a big kid you are! Smiling ear to ear the whole time 😁
  • @bnhietala
    I LOVE IT! Pumpkins bring me a disproportionately amount of joy. Between them, the sheep, and the turnip cannon, I'd never wanna leave!
  • @emm5716
    Hi Cammy, what a professional video! This would be an excellent topic for you doing on Landward next year. Perhaps the filming for that programme finishes before the pumpkin season starts though. It’s a dreicht wet day here in Fife so my hubby and I throughly enjoyed watching this video and a really interesting diversification from your lovely sheep videos. x
  • @nanalesa24
    What a great farm. Thanks for the trip.
  • There used to be a yearly contest for pumpkin chucking in the state of Delaware here in the United States. People would make these huge cannons, trebuchet and all sorts of ridiculous slingshot mechanisms to see who could throw a pumpkin the farthest. They actually had a TV show about it I think the guys from Mythbusters were on it. It was hysterical
  • @emmasmom60
    No wonder Landward has you on their show! You are so good at promoting and informing about all things Scottish/farming!
  • @lizhrubik3936
    Wow, quite an operation! Thanks for taking us along with you. Hope you got a pumpkin for Mr. Jock. 😀
  • @skyedancer3106
    Hi Cammy, great videos. I liked seeing the inside view of a pumpkin farm. Very interesting. Take care and stay safe till next time. ❤❤
  • @vickijones3660
    I appreciate how you show and educate me about the “big picture “ in Scotland. Enjoyed the video
  • Great video Cammy, great to see different versions of diversity in farming. Very cool to see pumpkins working on a farm. Keep up the good work 👍🏻
  • Now with the price of food, we should be looking at all the pumpkin recipes, bearing in mind the Pilgrim Fathers were saved from starvation by the kind first nation inhabitants giving them a share of their pumpkins. I have been making pumpkin bread and soup with my own dainty, easy to lift pumpkins. I would like to try the white ones. Super farm enterprise.
  • @GotAnUmbrella
    I'm sure the sheep love the fact they get all the extra pumpkin!
  • @Betsy-R
    Cammy you are such a joy! The positivity, happiness, and charisma you exude is contagious. 😁❤ Thank you for showing us your beautiful country. Love the drone footage! The owners were so smart to take advantage of the busy road and make it a fun outing for families. What kind of sheep do they have? Hope Lizzie, Jock and baby to be are doing well! Miss seeing Meg & her “victory rolls!” 😂Much love to the fam from South Carolina! ❤
