On this episode join us on Gill's farm in County Cork which lies on the edge of Cork city itself. We hear about her decision to retire from a life spent dairying and of the plan she hatched for her beloved herd.
We touch on her obsession for rare and native breeds down through the years and meet some of her livestock. Gill highlights particularly the work put in over the years involved in getting the native Droimeann officially recognised as a pedigree breed.
We find out about Gill's childhood, how she had to take over the farm as a teenager due to her father's poor health and also about a life spent showing stock.
Above all in this episode we meet a lady who loves her livestock.
