  • For Mental Health Awareness Week, we brought together inspirational Duchy of Cornwall tenant Sam Stables, founder of We Are Farming Minds, with Farmer Will Young, for a conversation about farmers' experience with mental health and the positive outcomes that can be achieved with the right support.
    Spending a day together on Sam's farm in Hereford, they chatted about finding support, the Duchy Mental Health Strategy and their hopes for the future. Whether a farmer or not, we hope you'll take something from this film and Sam's incredible story.
    We Are Farming Minds is being supported by the Duchy Mental Health Strategy to expand, helping more people in rural communities to access the support they need.

    My cousin is a farmer and she works harder than anyone I’ve ever met, but she suffered a breakdown a few years ago, Every day, whatever the weather, from pre dawn to dark she’s out working. So glad this is being highlighted, heartbreaking what that farmer is saying and so glad they’re supporting farmers with this charity.

      My son and his wife are dairy farmers in NZ. They are up before dawn and finish after dark in all kinds of weather, plus running around in the dark during calving. They're also the hardest workers I know. But they love it and their kids are having the best life ever.

    This is a topic that is never discussed, so thank you to the Prince and Princess of Wales for bringing this to the fore.
    Nobody talks about the mental health of farmers, who are under intense pressure from not only the elements and nature, which are totally beyond their control, but also the pressure of governments, banks and multinational corporations to do more under tighter restrictions.
    Farmers are indeed the salt of the earth, and they do their jobs to give us food security. Without them, we can't survive.
    They deserve our support.

I don’t know you personally, but what I have seen so far is that you all CARE about others. It’s nice to maybe live a very privileged life and all that comes with it, but you really CARE ABOUT OTHERS!!! People might want the glamour of royalty; however, what is it without the SERVICE?Don’t get discouraged, continue to do the work, but remember to take care of your MENTAL HEALTH. God bless!

    Our health is everything and I would rather pay more for local produce to support British farmers than have food shipped in from an overseas market where we know nothing about the provenance. If we lose our farmers we lose our food rights and once again (like our energy supplies) we can be held to ransom. It takes special people to be farmers, they should be treasured 🦋

    "Two Strangers Becoming Friends". These two farmers should trademark this to highlight the plight of farmers. Examples ➡ UA-cam channel, give talks, podcast, sell items, tours of faming life, meet the livestock, etc. Talking...is the best and cheapest communicator. Most people just want to be heard! Everyone matters. Those who know how to listen and not judge are priceless.

Supermarkets must get behind our farmers and STOP buying EU options instead of local grown.

    But we are happy and pleased to pass on
    - to local Kindergarten for kids to learn the whole process of wool making from a sheep to a wooly jumper
    - to a locally run bird reserve and rescue as nesting material
    - to local allotment gardens. Great product for under strawberries, cucumbers etc.
