In a charming teaser for the upcoming penultimate episode of Our Farm Next Door – Amanda, Clive and Kids, fans get an intimate glimpse into Yorkshire Shepherdess Amanda Owen’s thoughtful New Year’s resolution.
Set against the breathtaking, snow-covered Yorkshire Dales, a video snippet shared on Instagram captures the serene winter landscape and the quiet moments on the farm during last year’s cold months. Amanda reflects in a voiceover, “I come from West Yorkshire. When it used to snow, you’d have about an hour before anybody woke up but it turned to dirty slosh. Here, it remains pristine and perfect. I suppose it’s the cleanness, the sereneness and the quietness, it muffles everything.”
Her words paint a picture of tranquility, highlighting the peacefulness before the day’s work begins—disturbed only by the sounds of animals and children. The segment lightens as the family enjoys a lively snowball fight, showcasing the close-knit, joyful spirit of the Owens.

Amid the winter fun, Amanda shares a practical resolution with a touch of humor: “Nancy, go to my bag on the stairs and get my tow-chain out. It’s what every woman needs in her handbag! Yeah, it’s my New Year’s resolution, always carry a tow-rope.”
Throughout the series, viewers have witnessed the Owen family’s dedication as they lovingly restore Anty John’s, a long-abandoned farmhouse near their home. Amanda expressed her excitement about this project, saying, “It is fantastic More4 have given us the opportunity to showcase what we do best, working as a team and battling the elements whilst trying to reinstate the farm next door to its former glory.”
She went on to commend the filming crew: “It is no exaggeration to say that filming outdoors on an exposed hill end in Swaledale was at times a huge challenge for the Wise Owl film crew, but their dedication and enthusiasm has never waned.”
Anty John’s restoration is a significant undertaking for the entire Owen family, and they look forward to sharing every step with viewers.
The upcoming episode heralds the arrival of spring in Swaledale, preparing the Owens for another demanding lambing season. The episode preview reveals: “The Owens gear up for another busy lambing season - but there is still the task of putting the ancient hearth stone back in place in front of the fire. Amanda, Edith and Clemmie enjoy a picnic as builder Richard gets on with laying a stone floor on top of new cosy underfloor heating, while the kids collect frogspawn.”
Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids continues to be available to watch on More4, capturing the heartwarming and hardworking life of this beloved farming family.
