James is 24 and dreams of being a farmer. He鈥檚 got sheep, but nowhere to keep them. A sought-after farm in Cornwall is open for applicants. Will he find a home for his flock?

But if you鈥檙e a first-time farmer without the money to buy, even finding a farm is difficult. James has been trying for years and has applied to 6 farms. He鈥檚 recently heard about a farm to rent in Cornwall. He and his fianc茅, Isobel, have visited it and fallen in love with it. So they鈥檝e decided to throw their heart into this one last application and if they don鈥檛 get it, they鈥檙e going to sell their 400 sheep and their sheep dogs and buy a house. They'll stop chasing their dream.

And there鈥檚 one more complication: alongside tending to his sheep, James is also running a family business with his brother and father. He鈥檚 farming insects to feed fish. It鈥檚 a business with international growth potential and great career prospects but James has found that spending all day in a workshop doing experiments is not what he wants to do for the rest of his life.

James鈥� Dad Andrew isn鈥檛 very enthusiastic about James dream to be a livestock farmer. He wonders what will happen to the family business. And he worries that there鈥檚 not much money in farming. James鈥� Dad worked in the oil and gas industry for 40 years and has helped James set up the insect-farming venture. He feels that farming livestock on a small scale in Cornwall is not a viable business for his son. James meanwhile is determined to pursue the outdoor farming life. "If it pays off, our children will have an amazing life. We鈥檝e got one chance and we have to make the most of it.鈥�
