BBC Farm and  Smallholder Series

“Are you sick of the rat race? Wish your life was more “Good Life” than “This Life”? Is a day on the allotment your idea of heaven? Think you can run your own business?"



The BBC is looking for ten couples to take part in a new series which will really put your aptitude for farming to the test. Over six weeks you’ll learn how to run and manage your own farm; from animal husbandry and harvesting, to coping with the unpredictable British weather. The series will culminate in the winning pair getting the opportunity to live and work on their own small farm.


Whatever your background or relationship; friends / married / siblings, as long as you both share that yearning for a life on the farm we want to hear from you. To apply, please email your name to Fraser Mullen at farm@splashmediatv.co.uk and an application form will be emailed to you.


Successful candidates may spend up to six weeks away from home in summer 2010.
