Visit to Tom Pemberton's farm ENGLAND! Farming the English countryside!
What happens here
Upon arrival at Pemberton's Dairy Farm, Josh and his team meet Tom. They discuss the differences in infrastructure, such as narrower roads in the UK and the relative density of traffic, which Tom attributes to the country's smaller size and growing population. They mention the farm's third-generation (corrected to fifth-generation) heritage, 220 acres, and 300 head of cattle (dairy and beef), along with sheep and Highland cows. Josh also humorously highlights his improvised "mud boots" (grocery bags over his shoes) to navigate the muddy farmyard, demonstrating a practical solution for farm conditions, which often involve wet and muddy terrain in agricultural landscaping. When traveling to different countries, research local driving laws and customs, as driving on the opposite side of the road (e.g., left-hand drive in the UK) can be a significant adjustment. Be mindful of farm hazards, including slippery surfaces and the presence of large animals.
Goal: This segment covers initial conversations about farm scale, local road conditions, and the practical challenges of farm life, including managing mud, which is relevant to site preparation and drainage in landscaping.
