I’ve been up to Over Langshaw Farm today to stock up on ice cream before a scorcher of a weekend. Lucy and I are working on a cute video to show people how our farm enterprises are linked together. 👏🏻👏🏻 #WomeninBusiness #entrepreneurs #agriculture #agritourism Scottish Agritourism

We all say it don’t we, 'we won't be so busy once*...is done' (*input here: calving, lambing, silage, on and on and on.) But really, honestly, things will quieten down after next week - I'm sure. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Babies - really bad front of house, don’t get one! They request far too many breaks for ‘essential napping’, barf right when the visitors arrive and drool on the leaflets. #baddecisions #babysdontwork #agritourism #dontemploybabies #asva ASVA

When we were dreaming up this business more than 2 years ago I didn’t ever think that Fenwick would be spending time laying in the grass showing ducklings and puppies to the public 😆 what a life! #farmer #farming #GoodLife

No childcare this week and the farm is open! It was like living on a knife edge not sure what she was going to do next 😬 only a few ‘free ice creams’ excitedly thrown out of the serving hatch and ‘there you go, don’t come again’ was only uttered once 🤦🏽‍♀️ 😆 #agritourism

DAMNIT they’re right 🙄 ‘Make time for yourself!’ - Today I took time off (😱) and went for coffee. Not only did I enjoy a bit of social interaction and female company but I had enough energy to cook a lovely meal, do some Thebatchlady AND be nice to my husband 👌 #smallbusiness

Thanks Caroline Millar for telling me last year ‘get staff on board from day 1’. Instead of jiggling a crying, teething baby while trying to work outside I have brought him down to the house and snuggled him down for the nap he needs- because I can!❤️ #teamwork #agritourism

Today I plucked up the courage to put an end to something that’s not been pushing me or my business forward and wow, it feels GOOD. Always wonder why it takes me so long to make positive changes 🤦🏽‍♀️ I’m too ‘nice’ for too long I think 😬 #learningday

This is a significant step forward for the agritourism sector after years of work by many to raise the profile of the sector and the opportunity. Great to have @MairiGougeon leading on this.
