Nicola, aged 26, who, together with her family, farms around 1400 acres near Huntly, has had a whirlwind few years.
In 2021, she set up her own Facebook, Instagram and YouTube accounts - Livestock_FarmHER - and has since built-up thousands of followers.
She says the support and network from her social media followers has helped her through personal challenges and is using this platform to encourage other farmers and crofters to reach out to wellbeing
organisation Farmstrong, especially with it being such a busy time for many with lambing and calving.
“Sharing life on the farm through social media gives the public direct access from their phone and from the comfort of their home. I post everything, the good and the bad,” says Nicola.
