Our Dream Farm with Matt Baker
We've been searching for a tenant farmer to manage Llyndy Isaf, a 600-acre farm in Eryri (Snowdonia). Tune into the second series of Our Dream Farm with Matt Baker on Channel 4 to follow the seven hopeful applicants on their journey.
What's the series about?
The eight-part series, produced by Big Circus Media and hosted by TV presenter Matt Baker, features seven shortlisted applicants applying for a farm tenancy at Llyndy Isaf, a 600-acre farm in Eryri (Snowdonia).
Following the successful first series in 2024, this series sheds light on the process of applying for a farm tenancy. Applicants present business plans, discuss their vision for the farm and experience life on the estate by taking part in real-life farming tasks and experiences.
Giles Hunt, Land and Estates Director, says: 'We were delighted to work with Big Circus and Channel 4 to have made another series of Our Dream Farm. We hope the series increases understanding of the role farmers and land managers play in restoring nature, producing food and improving the climate for the whole of the UK.'
I am delighted we’re back for a second series, shedding light on the tenant farming world and the challenges our farming community faces in not only producing food but also in looking after our environment. It’s an incredible farm and I hope viewers will indulge in the breathtaking landscapes and enjoy learning about Welsh hill farming traditions, culture and techniques.
