JERSEYS ARRIVE THE ADVENTURE BEGINS! I am a dairy farmer 🧑🌾 🥛 🐮

- Big thanks to jack for the amazing drone footage it’s incredible thank you so much north west drone photography :)
It’s been 15 years with a dream, children born people passing on, building since 2016 big shed started in January 220.8 cubes of concrete going into it countless cups of coffee and we have finally arrived at this point THE COWS HAVE ARRIVED I can’t even tell you how exciting it is :)
in 2009 i had no experience of farming or the realities that came with it. That soon changed when I met my other half Roy, I had a job as a carer and in every spare moment threw myself into farming. I had only ever driven a Nissan Micra and had experience with horses, I learnt the hard way as nobody had the time to show me and soon after arriving I found myself mothering on calves to three quarter bred limmy cows. We spent every available moment on the farm between our day jobs. Fast forward to 2016 two children later we moved into our very own farm overlooking the northern Pennines, Laitha.
we are in a transitional period at present and will finally be milking cows and making the final switch later this year, after years of planning and implementing infrastructure we will be milking 120 Jersey cows on two Lely robots. This will be a huge change and a steep learning curve
I will be taking you all along for the ride so hit that subscribe button and see you every other day for farming vlogs.
I am overjoyed to be a farmer. I feel so fortunate every day to wake up and do what I love and even better share it with the world and hope it inspires more young people from Preston to spread their wings and think outside the box the world doesn’t need more childcare workers or hairdressers it needs more farmers.

Well done to everyone who has worked so hard getting the project completed, but most of all Thank you Charlotte for letting us all share this momentous day a day you will never forget. Good luck to a great future ahead xx
Hello Charlotte
Congratulations on the exciting start of milking your beautiful Jersey cows with the new robotic system! Your dedication to blending tradition with innovation is truly inspiring. From our farm to yours, we send our warmest wishes for success and joy in every drop of milk produced. May your farm flourish and your cows continue to thrive under your compassionate care. Here’s to new beginnings and the sweet success that comes from hard work and passion!
With support and admiration,
Richard Wheelwright
So nice they all know one another .off the same farm they are lovely 😍 ❤
Xx
So pleased for you and all your family what an amazing day for you all, that you’ll never forget. Top video.
I can't imagine how you all feel. But this made me emotional. The start of a great adventure in the queen of agriculture,, dairy.
I’m extremely happy far you all. A momentous day that will never be forgotten by you all.
She's putting people like U out of business
OMG is right. My eyes teared up at that first lead of Jerseys coming down the lane, I know how much it meant to you. My hat is off for the previous farmer for showing up. That impressed me. My hat is also off the the farmer who owned them previously. Nice quiet herd who was very much loved - and I know you will continue this. All the best in this new adventure. Don't worry about the kids around the cows - they will be fine and learn lots. You don't really need a cram separator for the house. Just use a wide jar and skim it off by hand -experience speaking.
The cow transfer went really well and they are such nice tempered cattle I think they will be a credit to you as well as where they came from .You are glowing with pride you have thanked many and rightly so but you forgot two people Roy and Charlotte Ashley because without you pair none of this would happen and you should be thankful and very proud of each other .Thankyou for taking us along with you cheers
Thanks Richard your so right x c x
Shiny new shed is no more, and Charlotte has 139 new pets. ❤

I was emotional and they're not even my cows! Congratulations. Looking forward to seeing them all in future
Beautiful cow barn. Love how it's so open and let's in natural light and air
Me too I hope it’s the same in winter blowing a gale 😅
@@charlotteashleyfarm 🤣
I don’t comment on your videos but watch and like every one but I have to say seeing those Jerseys walk up the lane and file into the shed was fantastic! All the very best for the future as a DAIRY FARMER! 🥰
Love to see your Jerseys as a Jerseyman living on the Island
Exciting times, the beginning of a new era.
What an amazing thing to see Charlotte, you and Roy have worked so hard to achieve this, well done to you both, and i know it's been a team effort so well done to everyone else involved too.
Brilliant video!
An idea for you to think about, get yourself a small cream separater and do your own cream, the best cream you'll ever taste.
So So happy for you, You did it, Charlotte Astley dairy farmer. Now go get some bloody sleep woman. The drone footage was really great. Take care. Witchy. X
That was your best video ever I was grinning from ear to ear watching that and almost in tears
What a beautiful bunch of cows you've bought
They settled in really quickly and look so at home and great that they pretty much all milked themselves straight away
And I can see you've definitely made a friend already ❤❤❤ and it's my 60th birthday today so thanks for rounding my day off perfectly x
Awwww happy birthday Keith hope you have a relaxing nice day x x x
@@charlotteashleyfarm thanks lovely xx
Wow what a day! Like a few others watching this video I had to wipe away a tear! 😢 Such a lovely sight all the cow's looking around there new surroundings. If Rufus wants to be amongst the cow's encourage him as there's alot of farmers selling out because the family want nothing to do with it! Amazing!
❤❤❤
Totally chuffed for all of you. Loved growing up on a farm drinking milk straight out of tank
Good job on the cow's. I could see you was over the moon.
That’s the last time that concrete will look like that. Congratulations this is absolutely brilliant. I’m looking forward to some gold top Graham’s dairy milk from your farm.
Absolutely amazing day - so happy for you and Roy - and can't wait for my bottles of Grahams Gold Top featuring Ashley Farm Jersey milk to start arriving
Well done to you all. The cows look great and cant believe how docile they are.
People have said they are content x

Great video Charlotte I am so happy for you all. I waited all day for this video and I am very happy to see it.
Hi Charlotte the best of luck with your cow's hun 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Oh Char.... I'm so happy for you lovely!
I may have shed a tear as they danced down the lane.... jerseys are so light footed.. its beautiful...
Congratulations to you and Roy... love as always Tracey ❤
Jersey Cow's...... my favourites ♥️
So pleased you got your dream, you have worked so hard to get it ❤
Just found your channel and love your content. We farm in Canada and put 2 lely robots in 2 years ago. We went from a double 8 parlor to robots and love them. The one thing we like is you're not tied down to a set milking time. We have two children that are busy with sports and one of us would have to miss a game because of milking. Now we both go and we just keep an eye on the robots on our phones. Good luck to you and Roy and your children on this great adventure you're about to begin.
Thank you very very much so good to hear from people in our shoes I’m sure we will learn fast x x x
Well done final step u and Rory done very well best luck
Hi Charlotte congratulations to you both ,love the jersey cows ❤️hope everything goes smoothly can’t wait for your next video 🙂❤️💯
So pleased for you, all the hard work everyone put in to this project. it`s been tireing and emotional for you, but all will fall into place. Just enjoy the Jerseys. what a lovely video. Thanks a lot Charlotte. Me, nothing to do with farming, just loved it all. Loads of greetings from me here in Germany-👍👍👌🐄🐄
What a stunning herd of jerseys. So excited for you guys after all your hard work,onward and upward from now
Oh, Charlotte I'm so jealous. That is a fine herd of Jersey's. If I were 50 years younger I would love to be where you and Roy are now. Best of luck with your new adventure. Robots must be the best thing ever.
They are so simple yet so bloody complicated
God bless you all and good luck going forward ❤
Congrats to you and all of the gang ,its been a blooming brilliant journey thus far. Here's looking to a brilliant future for you all, and being taken along with you all. Best Wishes Phil B.
Happy cows day Mum!
Hopefully you and Roy (and the children ofcourse) took plenty time to really enjoy this once in a lifetime moment, you deserve to live this moment to the fullest after all the work you put into making it happen!
You have just proven again that dreams CAN come true, as long as you believe in them and are willing to put the effort into realizing them.
Massive congratulations on this huge milestone! Charlotte & Roy Ashley .... dairy farmers ... it'll take me some getting used to 😉
Your I-am-so-excited-face is so amazing, love it
great video great team but thecows stole the show you take time to enjoy and dont ever under estamet what you have acheaved you and roy deserve to succeed annd its an honour to follow you crazy lady thank you both for what you do
what a beautiful herd of cows
They are lovely aren’t they
I'm delighted for you this is the result of years of planning and hard work to get this far . Hopefully this is beginning a very bright future for you Roy and all family 😊😊❤❤
Great video, they look happy cows. Loving Piccowso aka wonky nose. New adventure for you all. X
Thanks so much and she’s AMAZING
Amazing to see how it all game together after all the building video’s now a functioning dairy, great video
Well done to you all. Jersey 🐄 are so so cute.
They are adorable!x
Very best of luck with your new adventure, I hope you all get what you wish for.
Well done you two! Smashing it!
ITS THE ONE AND ONLY JOE SEELSSSS
Just can't wait to see this, yippee
Best of luck with the whole project now that you have actually up and running, I am looking forward to seeing your beautiful new shed covered in show-cit ( being nice, for RUclips) , I hope you give yourself an the Roy lad a bit of a chance to just do the routine stuff for a few days as your cows seem to know what they are doing and you guys look tired ( again being nice, wrecked might be a bit more accurate) . Oh and it’s really not good to let the cows know that you have favourites, you know like children should always think you don’t have a favourite, because they are vengeful beasts and they will be waiting for that momentary lapse when you are not paying attention and they will get you! That’s right! They will poop on you when you least expect it! Welcome to the dairy farming fraternity, I firmly believe you are going to be a great ambassador for our industry. Regards from Ireland.
Wow! Congratulations guys!!! Can’t believe I’ve just shed tears watching your cows wander up the lane to the barn! 😂 only found your channel a couple of weeks ago after watching you on the fed by farmers podcast! Been binge watching since! Love the channel! Hope all continues to go so smoothly!
Congratulations 🎊 🎉
I’m so so happy for you both. The shed looks full of life now and it’s brilliant. I don’t think that smile is going to leave your face. Looking forward to seeing how everyone settles in to the next stage of the farm.
I have been looking forward to this video to see the culmination of all your hard work and vision with he Jersies trotting down your drive.
Fantastic, and what a legacy for your family. Good luck
Congratulations on the barn and cows
Wooo cows at last! Now the next learning curve, in a big way, starts!! Well done guys and the best of luck going forward.
Well done one and all I take my hat off to you all...😀😀😀

Congrats to you both we have enjoyed watching your journey all the best for the next chapter
Thank omyou x x x
Good to see a new entrant start up. I hope all good for you
Too many exiting, infrastructure costing too much xx
Absolutely beautiful to see them come up the lane and go into the barn. How long did it take before the first one wanted to get milked?
Had bit of a tear in my eyes at them getting there. Trust you to find the naughty 1 lol
Good video well done.
Awesome
Absolutely wonderful video Charlotte. So happy for you, I can tell how made up you are now that the cows are on the farm. Amazing that the RAF even did a fly past to celebrate the arrival of the cows 😂
congratulations on your massive adventure. I hope u enjoy every minute as I did when I was growing up, but unfortunately, I didn't get to carry on the family herd due to milk quoters
I’ve so looked forward to this one. Didn’t it go well!!? Anyone would think you’d planned it. 😂❤
10 stars
the girls look so happy already, great work team
Massive congratulations to you both……got there!! Best of luck to you both
Bob Cat action was all very moo-ving :)
All I can say Charlotte and Roy is f...king awesome, I've watched your shed build and now you got the cow's, love you lots 💪👍
Congratulations on getting the Jerseys Cows 🐮 on the Farm… Hard Work pays off… All the best in the future! They look great 👍. ✌️🇨🇦🚜
Jersey cows my favourite breed across the face of the Earth 🌎 a lovely looking animal
They are so cheeky aren’t they
@@charlotteashleyfarm They are in deed 😊
@john67654
And the yummiest creamy milk, too.
Hi Charlotte I am so pleased for you as you have come on a long journey with the project what I can see is a huge investment.
And you don't need makeup, you are gorgeous anyway.
I love how you talk to the cattle or sheep and any animals you have.
I do talk to my Cattle as well, and they follow me as well🙂
Can't wait for the next video 😊
❤ congratulations ❤ so pleased for the both of you. There are so adorable.
A massive thanks to Farmer P for suggesting to follow your channel. You're a pleasure to watch with tong in cheek humour. Congratulations, Charlotte & Roy
Watching your cows arrive was the most joyous thing I have seen for ages ,especially when you were scraping with the skid steer and they were all following you. So funny. I have always loved Jersey cows . When I was young we had one we had reared from a calf called Delaware because she was a brand New Jersey. Oldies will get the reference to a late fifties song by ,I think. Perry Como. Love your channel which I have been watching since seeing you being totally gobsmacked with the thought of a toll motorway with Ollie.
HA HA HA I still can’t get over that every time I go through it… paying for a road 😂😂😂 they were so naughty honestly one of them kept going round and round 😂😂
Bring on the ladies so excited for you all
So chuffed for you all, a momentous day. Thanks for taking us along on your journey with your "fairy tale cows" 😀
So good to see all the hard work come to fruition . Well done the team. I hope someone said thank you to you too. ❤
Congratulations on you getting cows 🐄, starting milking, it has been a great to be with you virtually on this journey.
Need to see you drinking some cow fresh
This has got to be one of the best dairy buildings in the country! I have really enjoyed the build from start to finish and the result and workmanship is absolutely outstanding and the robots are amazing! The cows arriving and just settling straight in was great to see! Finally congratulations to you Charlotte for your brilliant videos keeping us all updated on the progress of the build. You are by far one of my favourite RUclipsrs and look forward to every new video with your brilliant energy and humour and look forward to following your new chapter!
congratulations to both you and Roy Charlotte could not be happyer for you both making dreams come true
Really proud of you guys you have made absolute fantastic watching with the jersey project and cannot wait to carry on watching, massive thank you 👍🏻
Awesome achievement guy's 👏🏻
Thank you c x
Oh Charlotte and Roy , I'm sooo pleased for you. They are gorgeous girls !! I can even feel your excitement from Shrewsbury. Wonderful, genuinely I'm really really happy for you ❤️
No you don't need makeup ! You're beautiful as you are!😊
Charlotte, I've been watching your journey from the start with complete admiration and envy in some respects. I think you are an inspiration to dairy farmers in these very difficult times and I wish you so much luck for the future. The cows look so settled and contented chewing the cud after their move so you must have everything spot-on. Congratulations to all the team for an absolutely cracking operation from start to finish. Looking forward to seeing more of all those Jersey girls.😂
Well done Charlotte and Roy, enjoyed been part of this journey and watching it all come together for you. Best wishes for the future
Proud moment for you and family well done
Thank you x c
Great video, very happy for you and Roy 🎉 Loved the emotion in face when you were with your now babies (cows) ,best of luck , can’t wait for the next update thanks
Fantastic,you were like all your birthday’s and Christmas’s had come at once,looking forward to more
Great to see the cows in the shed and how well they settle in. Have just watched the video for the second time, as I enjoyed so much. Seeing you reach your dream. Keep the videos coming , cheers
Glad you enjoyed it thank you so so much for caring enough to give me your time x x x x x x
Regards from Ireland, I am still aghast at how you have time to make a video ( even with help).
Oh I didn’t honestly I’ve struggled today 😂😂😂😂
Congratulations to you and all your family, it's an unforgettable day for all of you well done.
That unbelievable Charlotte!! Congrats to you and Roy, best of luck ahead!!
We have followed your adventure into Jersey cows, they are certainly very pretty! We hope your new business continues happily and you both manage to get some "me" time!! Farmers seem to find that quite difficult. My husband Robin says "You can't make all 130 of them pets". But I guess you can always have your favourites.
Has Roy been ringing Robin on the quiet telling him what I’m like 😂😂😂
We have 75 and.all are pets and we know each ones name. Love our girls. :)
Well done, I am so happy for you and your family, the girls look so lovely
Congratulations, it's been some journey,now it begins!!
Well done guys. You should be so proud. It’s been a joy watching the journey 🎉🎉🎉
That was very nice that you acknowledge everyone that has helped with Roy's and your journey. PS if you look like that at 5:30am then you most definitely do not need make up.
Bless you that’s kind oh there is so many to name I haven’t finished 😂😂
