“I completely live and breathe farming”
21st February 2023
As part of A-Plan Insurance’s Rural Community blog they spoke to Rhi about her experience as a suckler beef and sheep farmer based in the Shropshire Hills.
Bridging the gap between farm and the consumer is something that lots of farmers are trying to do in an effort to help more people understand the reality of what goes into producing their food, and hopefully alter public opinion on why supporting and buying British is so important.
As part of their work on social media to contribute to farmer’s efforts in showcasing British agriculture, A-Plan Rural Insurance have setup a Rural Community blog, where they invite farmers to give their experiences in the industry, sharing their contributions to over 120,000 followers on Instagram. Since starting the blog, A-Plan Rural have worked with a great variety of farmers from backgrounds and locations all over the UK.
In their latest blog, they spoke with Rhi Pinches, a suckler beef and sheep farmer based in the Shropshire Hills, who works with her father on their family farm. They asked Rhi some questions around her farm, the animals she farms, some of her processes for rearing her animals and why she loves being a farmer in Britain.
