I love Sandi and Mark!! I don't care what content they video....Farming, Sheep, or Family. I watch it all....Why?? Because they are a loving caring family with great values...and they are REAL with emotions!!
I agree completely Bobbie, such a genuine, empathic and beautiful family. I just can’t go without my Sheepishly me vlogs, especially ‘vlogmas’. ❤
I agree, I ❤ sheeply me with the Brock Family.
Me too!
Totally agree 👍🏼 ❤🎉
Brilliant podcast, this 78 year old male doesn’t fast forward Sandy’s emotion stuff because eventually you realize that it’s way more important than you ever understood.
I don't..but I definitely get why someone would❣️ I worry too only after finding out the statistics💔 (if u know, U know). HAGD✌️🐑
Thanks Cammy and Iona for having the Brocks on the podcast. I have watched Sandi and Mark for years and I always wondered of their farming history. This podcast was so full of their history and filled a void in my listening history.
AGREE 100PERCENT
Thank you cammy and iona great podcast with sandie and Mark,I've followed both sheepishly me and the sheep game from the start,my youngest grandaughter who is 7 now loves to watch sheep farming and she started watching from being a baby,great content thank you all ❤
Mark and Sandi did a great job representing Canada and the agricultural family!! Very.diplomatic, yet sharing their truths.
We need to remember our farmers!!!!! Value them, respect them, and support them!!!!! We are nothing nothing without our farmers👩🏻🌾👨🏻🌾💕
All around the world 🌎
Perfectly said
I love how Mark explained the human side of Sandis blogs! This does just make it all real! Boys need to be taught that emotions are not weakness!
I did not even know this podcast was coming. So glad I came along on this journey. Great podcast!
Just FYI it’s me the 61 year-old Mama/Nana and I rarely ever watch a short on UA-cam. I live for the long format. I want a story. I am not after instant gratification, I want to work for it. I want to invest myself into the story. I love the length of this video I know it looks long, but I knew that at the end of the video I was going to wish it wasn’t over yet and I wasn’t wrong😁. This is my connection to the outside world and the parts of the world. I never got to be a part of or even explore. But thanks to you and others like you. It’s not too late I can explore and I can get to know people and experience the holidays with them And learn things that’s the best part is the world is an open book now and I can learn about so many things and I do. Thanks to UA-cam. I’ve taught myself to refinish furniture cook things I never thought I’d ever get to explore and so much more so much more😍🤸🏽♀️🤸🏽♀️
I love the shorts in addition to th😢e regular videos.
I like some of the shorts, but I like to see the outcome, not be left hanging, or have to try and figure out how to get to the following short to see what happened.

Watching Sandi is what really got me hooked on watching farming channels and especially sheep farming on UA-cam. So many people felt they were being smothered during the pandemic. But farmers sharing their lives threw a very needed lifeline. Right now I follow a half dozen on a religious basis, without picking favourites because they are very different: Sheepishly Me, Sheep Game and Ewetopia for my ovine "fix". Tom Pemberton, Farmer Tyler Ranch and Hoof GP; satisfy my bovine itch. All are very unique, educational and fun.
Mark and Sandi are so great to listen to.
It was nice to see you enjoying the visit with the Brocks. I hope that you can begin to realize how special what you do is to all of us. You are unique and sharing your life with us is a gift to us. I watch all your channels, and I've never lived on a farm in my life, but you've taught me so much that I might even be able to be helpful if I wasn't old and achy!!
It's great to live vicariously through you as I sit in my recliner! Love to you and your dear family.❤
LOL, me too.
My sentiments exactly ! As a retired dairy farmer and lifelong hobby farmer who still loves the life but can no longer do so much of it I really enjoy your videos.
The advent of Celebrity Farmers through UA-cam is I believe the single best thing to happen for farmers Mental Health. It has created a very accessible network which acts both as an education and support group. Greetings from Ireland ☘️☘️☘️
So great to see this episode.
Many Canadians love Scotland for it's people and landscape while others came from Scotland able to return each year.
Sandi may not realize but some live vicariously through her content wishing they could do the same.
Others like me, both Sandi, Mark and Cammy have provided the confirmation we need to return to the farm. Each are a wealth of knowledge and reminder of skillsets we let get rusty.
Now if we could visit Scotland, that would just be priceless.
Thanks for sharing
Loved this and you are right about shorts, generally. However I'm 70 yrs old, mainly on youtube to watch BTS videos, but I do click on shorts and that's how I found Sandy Brock and her sweet sheep. I can't believe I look forward to each new video about sheep. BUT, I love Sandi, her family and reading all the comments from her followers. such nice people. Like BTS ARMY, LOL. In this scary world it's such a hopeful thing to see a bunch of lovely, good humans.
Thank you for having the Brocks on today. They are so inspirational as a couple and farmers. You guys are awesome!!!
There’s so much good that you do on UA-cam! Not everything needs a financial return, there’s life lessons, compassion, a sense of community and so much more that you share with and give to your audience, and so much more. Thank you all !!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
There is & has to be more to our lives than profit. What gives our lives meaning? Being THERE for other people! 💕💕
Great discussion here, I am a born and bred city girl and yes I follow Cammy, Sandi, Hoof GP and Tom P. I have learned so much about agriculture from all of you!
I follow them also. May I suggest for you to watch ARMS FAMILY HOMESTEAD. It’s very interesting also.
Sandi, we need to be cautious about stereotyping. Yes, I'm a woman & find you VERY relatable! but when I was watching Sonne Farms, they (dad & son) gave you a shout out & asked their viewers to add their prayers for Jess's healing. Thank goodness, men are learning to be more comfortable expressing their emotions. Am loving watching the 4 of you! 💕💕 And also I love how your loyal viewers are courteous, respectful & supportive toward each other. So vital when there's so much divisiveness, feeling like it's all-pervasive sometimes. Definitely a therapeutic tonic! 💕💕
ALOHA! Thanks for having the Brocks on your channel. They are a hard working farm family for sure! They are a loving family with thier families and especially there kids! If any one of them needs help they all jump in! Jes is a fighter and they all were there for her to get her through it! God bless all you farmers that feed the world!
❤❤❤❤❤❤ great to see both of my favorite sheep channels talking together. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Exactly ! ❤❤❤
Yes, I have been waiting for this vlog and learned more about Sandi and Mark. Thank you from Ontario.
Yes Sandi you nailed it lol. I am a 61-year-old Mama/Nana lol 😝. I am a huge fan of you, Sandi &, your family and friends😁. I watch your videos as soon as you post them. Why??? So very many reasons. One my whole life I dreamed of being a homesteader, and it will forever only be a dream. So watching your family Farm feed my fantasy. But I come back again and again just because you are such an amazing beautiful person. You’ve raised a fine family. You have an equal match in your amazing husband and I’m stuck in bed unwell. That’s OK I accept it but for a little bit, I get to do all kinds of things via you and you’re amazing family. while feeling love, joy and unpredictability, Thank you🙏🏼.
Always waiting for their xidios to drop!
Very well said.
I love Sandi and Mark! Thank you for speaking with them!
Thank you for having Sandi and Mark Brock on your program.
Love this!!! So happy Cammy and Sandi got together to do this vlog (+Fiona & Mark too)
I started watching Sandi and remember the shout out she gave to
Cammy's channel and I checked it out right away!
Both are entertaining, educational, and so real. Yes, I'm a loyal fan!!
I never watch podcasts. But here I am at 2:30 in the morning watching you. I saw Mark and Sandy and I thought I'd watch a little and got hooked. What a pleasant 90 minutes. Good job all of you!
Absolutely agree I fall in love with watching the person and their life on youtube. If a youtuber can stay natural and humble while showing the good and bad of their life they have a charmed mix that we all love to watch. Anyone that lets their head inflate gets less interesting. So please stay humble, show all the bad along with the good and I'll be watching forever. On the subject of shorts, I rarely watch them but that's probably more my age. I do not use my phone to watch, I use my laptop and sit comfortably to relax and enjoy longer content. Kami and Sandi both have the right mix to keep my interest and I am always excited to see a new vlog from either of you. Long may it continue. :D (for context: I'm English, age 65 and female with no farming connection in my life)
Strongly agree. I started w Sandi long long ago, found Cami, This Farm Life & now Tara. I'm older, female & a military widow RN BSN. No farm connection but love animals & just plain learning about new stuff! My son kids me now. "Is that your sheep lady again?"Thanks for a great podcast.
Carol I’m 68 from the US, no farming background in farming. You expressed how I feel about both channels. Long may they continue to! A silly thing- I even dream about the channels ! I’ve had some lovely visits in my dreams ! 😀😀😀 I was one of the subscribers that found Cammy from Sandi.
Same, 65 also and zero farming background.❤
Of course super-fans are watching both Sandi and Sheep Game... and Fed By Farmers apparently.
and the Hoof GP
Yup, all of the above.
Hi , I’ve been watching Sandi’s channel for a couple of years. I don’t have a farm or sheep. I wish for one day to own a farm. I just love how Sandi is real!! She is organized, caring and such a family person. Keep up the hard work.
Sandi, I watch all of your videos whether you are in the barn or on the land, it doesn’t matter! I hate Tik Tok, shorts are not my thing but I have watched some of yours only because I know it boosts your channel. Long for is worth while because you learn something. The pandemic is the reason I watch you, Graeme, Cammy and sometimes Tom Pemberton.
Tom's channel looks very interesting, but try as I might, I can't understand a word he says.
@@lindastent-campbell5130 Have you tried clicking on the "CC" button at the bottom of the screen? Sometimes it's quite humourous how the meaning gets lost in translation 💕💕
Another excellent podcast. Loved this one. Only recently discovered Sandi and Mark's channels and I've been binge watching their back catalogue. It's great when you find a new channel with a huge library to watch! I can't explain why I'm so interested in farming content - I have no background in farming at all. It's fascinating. Thank you so much Cammy and Iona.
For sure! I have learned soo much!
Shout out to Iona,she is lovely and a nice addition to the conversation!
I loved this podcast, and yes your both right, Cammie is exactly as you would expect him to be a real natural people person that shines throuout his vlogs, and Sandi, just such a beautiful Soul true to herself, fun to be with, the love you can see between Sandi and Mark is palpapable, a great podcast to you all, I'm a retired nurse, not into sheep farming at all, ut committed to watching both your channels, love the new one too with Lizzie and the boys, soon to be boys and girl...whoop whoop good on all of you xxx
I did not mean to miss Iona from the conversation, gorgeous young lady xxx
I am a huge Brock family fan from Queensland, Australia. I just finished watching Sandi's new video for "Sheepishly Me" when I found this video and was so excited to see Mark and Sandi together being interviewed. I wish Mark would make more farming videos. Not that I'm a farmer of any kind. I just love to watch a variety of things. Plus, I loved listening to the Scottish accent. What can I say. I'm a McDougall and have Scottish ancestry. Cammy blushed a nice shade of red when he was complimented. So cute. LOVED IT. 😊❤️🙏🇦🇺
I looked into sheep after my grandpa's 9y/o sheep died 2 weeks after a difficult lambing, 2 pretty twins with the first one backwards that got stuck. Luckily for them both lambs didn't make it, and mom died 2 weeks after what I believe was affects from retained placenta.
A few weeks later I found myself watching Tom scott trying to say "away, come by and lie down" in a Scottish accent, and so I started binging a years amount of Cammie, after that I found Sandi and decided to go from Vlog 550 and ended up watching pretty much every vlog of hers in about a 4 months span. You both have teached me so much about sheep, life, just how to puch through and being an amazing person.
Was waiting for this one and it didn't disappoint. Thank you.💜
So glad!
I loved this. Felt like I was sitting down with real friends. ❤
I really enjoyed watching Sandy and Mark on the show, I've learned so much about them. They are great farmers.
Your clean language is respected. That's the reason I enjoy Sandy's Chanel 😊❤
I discovered The Sheep Game whilst reading a book by a “Buddhist Quaker Shepherdess.” I googled a term I did not understand and Google took me to UA-cam and Cammy. From Cammy I learned about Sandi, and the rest, as they say, is history. I wouldn’t miss a single episode on either of your channels.
Thank you so much for doing this together!
Great interview. What's so nice about u-tube content like all of yours; is that your real people doing "life" and not because you just want to be famous. Thank you long May you carry on! 😊
Brilliant ,what a Powerful ,brave and loving couple who have travelled and navigated a courageous journey.The Fed By Farmers podcast is beginning to look like The Magic Porridge Pot ...It just keeps on giving . Well done team Happy Easter from the lambing sheds.
I’m 76 woman, but we didn’t have the iPad. I was is the country I did from chickens, sheep, horses, made maple syrup, (99 gallons a year and sold $5.00!), morel mushrooms, carpenter. My skills were many! Know that I had aneurysm/Aspasia, I love watching both Mark, Sandi and their children.
Thankyou for interviewing Sandy and Mark. Loved the podcast
So great seeing Sandi and Mark on this program. I’m one that doesn’t usually watch long videos but I enjoyed every second of this one. Learned a lot about them here. I’ve been watching Sheepishly Me for years and she recommended Sheep Game so I immediately started following you as well. Been about 4 years with the Sheep Game. Now following the shearing channel and Lizzy’s as well. 🥰🥳🇨🇦
Loving Cammy is wearing a sheepishly me top ❤
My two favorite sheep channels together. LOVED this podcast. Thanks for sharing this wonderful time with us. God Bless all of you
What Mark & Sandi are talking about having a Farm Manager is basically how my siblings and I are still owning 3rd generation farms. We have a coop situation with a farmer. We split the costs with them as well as the profits. Our parents put the whole thing in an LLC and when they passed we even put their house into the LLC. It works.
Long form Sandi Brock and Sheep Game sub. I will watch Sandi’s shorts only because they ARE edited to tell a story, not just be a snip of the long form content. I love the connection with farmers as a non-farming descendent of farmers and seeing the good, the disappointing, the struggles, the joys, and the whole family participation. Thanks so much for all you do.❤❤
Another brilliant podcast. I am biased when it comes to the Brocks . Top of my of my 'always watch" channels. Who would have thought I could identify a
Canadian sheep by name.
I know, right? Recently, Cinnamon went up to Sandi, and I knew it was her, lol.
The Sheep Shepherd is hilarious to watch! But, Cammy and Sandy are my favorites… I’m always waiting for the next video 😉❤️
Love the pair of them, I was subbed to marks channel before sandi's but I had been watching her channel for a year or 2 before before Mark started. And that video when sandi gave cammy a shout out was amazing as I watched the the sheep game grow massively
Loooove Mark and Sandi amd their family!
This was great to see Sandi & Mark who I've been following, from our beautiful Yorkshire Dales, since before Sandi got her 100k subscribers. I've just had a shiny new hip so been watching this between surgery and recovery. How utterly bonkers to put a carbon tax on farmers. They are essential to feed the people. It's already a tough financial job. Yes of course we all want to do our bit for the planet but to tax farmers is a huge step in the wrong direction. It would never and should never work here.
Enjoyed your interview.
I am an old farm girl from. N. Florida USA. My childhood was on a farm in W. Michigan
I am one of Sandy's viewer.

I have been a huge fan of shapelessly me and the entire Brock Clan since I came across them on UA-cam about a year and a half ago, but I have watched like episodes passionately from years ago. I am in Oregon, Willamette Valley, USA if I could go anywhere in the world it would be Scotland, but on the way, I want to stop on the Brock Farm♥️. This is my first time coming across this podcast. Though I have seen a few episodes of you farming in Scotland. I am a devoted fan to shapelessly me❣️❣️❣️❣️ So yes, I jumped clicked liked and subscribed fed by farmers podcast👍🏼😁. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. This is like a happy place. Perfect combo😃.
I'm soooo thrilled to see Sheepishly Me & Sheep Game together. Huge and total fan of both your channels, of course as well as Hoof GP & Farm Born & Bred now 👍💕
Me too - started with Sandi, and it progressed from there!
I live near Sandi, and I love how she promotes our part of Canada!
I watch Sandi on Sheepishly Me all the time. This has been such a pleasure to watch, and meet Cammy and Iona. ♥️ You have a new US fan. Such a pleasure!
Great podcast, it’s funny you saying how genuine and the same in real life they are, they said the same about you in their video of their trip to Scotland, that’s why you have so many followers! ❤
So glad I watched sandy and her hubby. I learned so much about them. Very enjoyable.
I enjoy seeing other you tubers on here because they aren't having to work, they get to chat about who they are and where they come from.
Thanks for having this channel!
Love watching all of you, so authentically human beings. Love the Brock’s watched them for years and enjoy being introduced to this channel now.
This has been so enjoyable to watch and hear how things started and how things are going. I love the long form videos.
Sandi, I had no clue that your content is being pirated. That's because I'm not on any social media - no Facebook, no Instagram, no TikTok. Sometimes I feel a bit behind, because you've posted something on Instagram that other subscribers mention. But as you said, I really appreciate the context of the long format 💕💕
I was one of those subscribers that went over and subscribe to you as soon as Sandi mentioned you I’m all for that and the fact is I had actually seen a couple of your videos before that, but I just didn’t get caught up in it yet. Thank you so much for doing this podcast and having the Brocks on it it was really nice to get to, sit back and listen to you guys and watch you talk while you’re not trying to save the life of sheep or crop or something. Thank you.
WOW what a GREAT vlog!! I am a real city girl ( only wear high heels) but am a Totally devoted fan of Sandi & Cammie & Lizzy and now Iona, LOVE who you are and what you do!❤ from Montreal Canada
I actually love watching the grain farming vlogs Sandy does as well as her sheep farming. It’s much more complicated than I realized.
It was Sandy’s shout out that brought me to The Sheep Game although I suspect the sheep rescue with The Hoof GP would have brought me to him as well.
Now I’m going to need to watch all the Fed By Farmers Pod episodes.
Thank you I was looking forward to this one & can’t wait until you have Crawford on 😊❤❤
When I got bored watching ghost stuff I came across the HGP. I love his accent, that is what got me into cows. From there I came across the game then Pennington. Then Sandy popped up and this city girl finds all this interesting. My husband says I just like watching people work but what I learned from all you I would tell everyone. I am sure they think I am crazy but at my age, this is the best counting sheep before bed. Sheep and accents…LOVE IT! Thank you all🌹
I really enjoyed this interview. I can see the deep respect Sandi and Mark have for each other as people and as farmers. I appreciate the insight that they share about their own family and farming journey and how transparent they are with both the challenges and rewards. Thank you! - Marylin
Another fabulous podcast. I do look forward to seeing & listening to you guys and your guests. Follow you, Sandie, Jess and now Tom! X
I watch all of Sandi's and Mark's videos, no matter what they are doing. Same with Sheep Game, Hoof GP and Just a Few Acres Farm.
I'm a 66 year old female and I watch all of Sandi Brocks videos! Sandi, Mark and the family are my heroes! I unfortunately live in the US, so I can't go meet them! Thank you Cammy and Iona for having them on your podcast!❤
When Sandi posts a vlog when I am at work I will watch over lunch (like today's vlog) and when I am home I will get some cross stitching stuff out and watch her while I stitch. I prefer the long form myself.
When I found sheepishly me, she only had 20000 followers. Has gone massive now, and I love all their channels
Canadian here. LOL. What Mark and Sandi said about Quebec farmers is what Alberta farmers say about Ontario farmers. Canada is a vast country with many similar and different agricultural challenges from sea to sea to sea.
Sandi has such a big, bright smile. I'm just not a natural smiler. I'm a happy, optimistic person and I'm smiling inside, honest, but if I tried a big smile like that I'd just look like a paint-huffing shark. The Brocks are true gems in this world. ✨️
I so enjoyed seeing Mark and Sandi on your podcast! I just love their channel! I got hooked watching her clean poop from her barn!! LOL
I so enjoyed this video. I'm a big Sandi and Mark fan and was very excited to learn of the Scotland connection because my daughter attended University of Stirling her junior year of university where I had the opportunity to visit -- what a beautiful country! Thank you for such interesting conversation about farming, and then about the UA-cam work -- fascinating! Best wishes from Waterbury, Connecticut, US in New England!
Hello Sandi super fan, Gram fan and the sheepgame newbie. I'm so glad I've found you all
I really enjoyed this podcast. I was watching Cammie when Sandi mentioned Cammie's channel. I would love to visit Scotland one day. So much information given.
Its funny, I live like 15 minutes away from where Sandi grew up, but I only found her channel after Cammy was on the Hoof GP. I've been watching homesteading & small farm content for years, then found Graeme & the boys. After Cammy's appearance, I started watching him & got the reco for Sandi & have been watching her since
YaY, seeing both of you there, Sandi and Mark. Hearing the history, is awesome!
So nice. I love sandis channel. Live in uk but was born in Canada. So she gives me my Canadian fix. I miss living there. So through Sandi I have now found cammy and Crawfords farm channels. Loving all 3 now. Not a farmer but remember farmers when I was a kid and playing on farms. So just love these channels. Not a big fan of normal telly. I think it’s good to know about farmers trials and tribulations feeding us all. Much love xx
Farming women watch, live, breathe farming for the most part.
Been watching 7yrs love all the content
Mark can't get a word in lol love them both
love the bocks content its so diverse I love to folow the yearly weel for the animal content to the agri... its my little calming time..
Another great vlog. My favourite one so fare but then again I am from Ontario, Canada.
So cool watching my 2 sheep farmer channels I follow together.
WOW what a GREAT vlog!! I am a real city girl ( only wear high heels), but am a Devoted Fan of Sandi, Cammie, Lizzy and now Iona…LOVE & RESPECT who you are and what you do! ❤from Montreal, Canada
Thank you for this Pod cast . Never heard of them until they appeared on your UA-cam. Great stuff.
I have been recuperating from a fall from a ladder. So great to just watch the whole pod cast un interrupted. 😊
Keep it up.😊
Hi all! 👋
It's Jo from Sandi's Sheepishly Me YT channel. This podcast just popped up in my feed - I had forgotten about it.
I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoyed this podcast!!
I love the Brock family and delight in anything Sandi posts! This was a really good production Cammy, thank you! ❤️
Michigan, USA
I love to watch Sheepishly Me! Love to hear the background and the history!
I’ve found their story so amazing, and after all they have been through over the past decade they have realised that life is short and that they can’t just assume that their lovely kids will just take over, even though they both have shown an interest in farming. Jack has another career that can still be used in farming and Jess has gone to university to learn about agriculture etc. They really are a credit to Sandi and mark. They are fantastic parents who have put them kids first. I have seen so many farmers on line who force their children to take over from them and the kids end up resentful of that fact. All farmers have it so hard these days, I really feel for all of you, you all work so very hard for not a lot of money. Thank you to you all for sharing your lives and knowledge on UA-cam. If s amazing how hard you actually work. 365 days a year and you all miss out on so much family time. I can’t wait to see you all again together, maybe one day you could go and visit Sandi and Mark, that’s if you could ever get someone to look after your farm Camp x
So delightful to see and listen to Sandi and Mark. Thank you for sharing.
I've never really watched a podcast and this was so enjoyable. Thank you for sharing
Like the rest I follow both of your channels and loved this pod cast. You did a fabulous job hosting this one, could feel the mutual respect. You got information out of Mark and Sandi that I've been waiting to hear. This was a great one.
Great interview with the Brock’s. First time I have seen the Fed by, Farmers Podcast.
Loved your Podcast with Mark and Sandi. I am 76 yrs old and I never miss a video of them. I live in the U.S., state of Florida.
I’m a 55yo female who lives in London England. Never done a days farm work in my life but I follow Sandi and loads of other farmers because I find it fascinating.
I don't miss an episode of Sandi's. It feels like going home without the judgement or political arguments. There are days where I feel like I'm more a part of their family than my own LOL or maybe it's just wishful thinking. Sandi & Mark break the stereotype that much of the public believes about farmers. It takes more brains to farm successfully than are required for most jobs and many farmers are college graduates. Mark blows the "Grain farmers just plant it, drown it in chemicals that pollute the planet and then harvest it and so they don't really work most of the year" belief out of the water. He shows how much thought goes into planning, the equipment required, how often machinery breaks and addresses environmental concerns. Farmers have to be resourceful "Jack of all trades" everyday. The work doesn't end when you leave the field. Sandi shows how every family farm that I know, loves and cares for their livestock. She shows how much planning and work goes into properly raising livestock. They show the good and the bad parts. The things they can control and what they can't. As if all of that isn't enough, they also brought us into their family. They share the good times and one of the hardest years emotionally they've likely ever had. We laugh with them and we cry with them. Then there's the sheep! I've learned more about sheep than I ever thought I would want to know, but I love learning anything to do with animal care (farmer's daughter and still on the farm). Through their channels, I found you guys and subscribed!
Great to see Sandi and Mark on the show! We are able to see them more of themselves then what we usually get to see on their channel. ❤
