Amanda Owen, star of the popular series Our Yorkshire Farm, has given her followers an honest glimpse into life on Ravenseat Farm as they face some “dismal” weather. Known affectionately as the Yorkshire Shepherdess, Amanda regularly shares updates from the remote Yorkshire Dales farm where she lives and works with her former partner Clive and their nine children.
In her latest Instagram post, Amanda pictured herself among the sheep, wind playing through her hair, and admitted the gloomy conditions had made her appreciate the warmth of staying indoors. “Goodness me, there’s been some dismal kinda days weathewise,” she wrote candidly. Jokingly, she encouraged viewers to enjoy the farm life vicariously from the comfort of their sofas by tuning into her show, adding playful tea cup and television emojis with the line, “Ewe know how to do it.”
Fans quickly rallied with words of encouragement. One supporter called her “the beating heart of the Ravenseat universe,” while others praised her resilience and upbeat spirit despite the hardships. Many expressed admiration for the authenticity Amanda brings to portraying the realities of farm life.

Amanda, 51, first captured hearts when Our Yorkshire Farm debuted in 2018, documenting the everyday trials and triumphs of the Owen family. The show follows Clive, Amanda, and their children—Raven, Reuben, Miles, Edith, Violet, Sidney, Annas, Clementine, and Nancy—as they manage their isolated farm in Upper Swaledale within the breathtaking Yorkshire Dales.
Building on that success, Channel 4 launched Our Farm Next Door, chronicling the family’s exciting project to restore a rundown building close to their home. Amanda recently described the series as a unique blend of countryside life, family dynamics, and local history, distinguishing it from typical rural documentaries or soaps. “It’s not any one thing—educational, motivational, or conventional. You just watch and take away what interests you,” she shared.
Despite the challenges, Amanda’s updates continue to highlight the deep connection and commitment the Owen family feels toward their land and lifestyle. Their story remains a beloved window into the highs and lows of modern farming life in one of England’s most stunning rural settings.
