35 - 21: Cumbrian Shepherdess - Spring

For the first of three visits this year, Sammi Kinghorn is on a hill farm in Cumbria, as she catches up with a passionate young farmer, 16-year-old Katie. From dawn to dusk it's all go, as Katie and Sammi get stuck into all the daily chores and a surprise birth. But it's not just the farm keeping Katie busy this year – it's also GCSE year! Sammi finds out how this determined young lady is not fazed as she juggles her studies with caring for her animals.
