Reviving Ulva
Richard Baynes meets the man bringing Highland cattle and environmentally friendly agriculture back to the remote Scottish island of Ulva.
How can the lost farming riches of a remote Scottish island be restored? In 2018 the island of Ulva, which sits off the coast of the Isle of Mull and has a population of just five, was bought by a community group for around £4.5 million. Plans to restore the housing on the island are well under way and the population has doubled to ten. But now the island’s fine farmland has to be brought back to life, too. We meet the man tasked with doing just that, and some of his impressive but friendly animals.
Produced and presented by Richard Baynes
