Episode 6
After following Sweeny over his first year as a full-time crofter, the final programme of the series sees him take some time to reflect on the last 12 months and look ahead to the future.
The support of family, friends and neighbours has been really important to him, as he often he needs some extra help. One young man who has been vital to things is David, who is always on hand to help out. Lambing was a crazily busy time, and the early morning rises weren't always Sweeny's favourite part of the day!
There was also a massive 2018 highlight for Sweeny with the first calf to be born on the croft in 60 years. Then there were the pigs and the piglets, and of course the hens - busy times indeed! Vital to his plans was to maximise the income he could bring in, and there was another proud moment when he saw his own meat being stocked and sold in the local shop in Ness – as well as meat boxes heading to the mainland by post. He also explored how he could get more from his wool – and even had a go at knitting!
Sweeny's hard work was also recognised in the best way possible as he won ‘The Young Crofter of the Year Award' - a fantastic way to end his first year as his own boss on the croft.
