Megan Colvin
My name is Megan Colvin. I’m 31 years old, and together with my husband and 2 children, we farm 100 cross ewes over 100 acres on our farm in Houston Renfrewshire. Having always had a passion for working outdoors and not being afraid of hard work, I always knew I wanted to go on and run my own business from our farm. We run 3 other businesses alongside our farm, and our most recent venture has been a step into the unknown. We have recently opened 5 holidays lets which has been a long project over the past 4 years. This is a totally new business for us and requires a whole new set of skills and knowledge that we are most definitely learning as we go.
In taking part in this scholarship, I’m hoping to gain more knowledge, contacts and skills from other individuals who are from the same back ground and who have taken similar risks in order to keep they’re family farm running.
