Rare Breeds 50th Anniversary Compilation

BBC One - Countryfile, Rare Breeds 50th Anniversary Compilation

Adam Henson explains the work of the Rare Breeds Survival Trust on its 50th anniversary.

A visit to Adam Henson's farm to celebrate 50 years of the Rare Breeds Survival Trust, which was founded by Adam’s father Joe.

This year is the 50th anniversary of the Rare Breeds Survival Trust, a charity founded by Adam’s father, Joe Henson, to reverse the decline of rare breed numbers in the UK. To mark this date, we visit Adam’s farm.

With summer temperatures rising, Adam welcomes a shearing gang on site to remove the coats of his commercial sheep, before learning more about their ancient cousins. We catch up with an Exmoor pony stallion, Willow Warbler, to find out if he has been welcomed by the mares on the farm and sired any foals. Lexi, a Suffolk punch horse, goes for a pregnancy scan. A Gloucester bull is prepared for a day at a country show with a thorough head-to-tail wash, and Adam is visited by the chief executive of the British Pig Association for a very special moment.
