Amanda will be on hand to help with any tasks, no matter how big or small – whether it be late nights or early mornings, she will offer her support and learn from the different farming cultures around her.
The star will get to know each of the six families personally as she integrates herself into all aspects of their everyday life.
Speaking of her new media venture, the Our Yorkshire Farm star said: “This series will show what life’s really like for farmers in 2022. To the outside world, it might seem like some farmers have it made, with large plots of land and expensive machinery but, as ever, the truth is much more complex.
“I want to explore just what it means to be a farmer today, in a world where so much more is expected of us than ‘just’ being food providers.
