Clarkson’s Farm’s Jeremy Clarkson flooded with support after Diddly Squat announcement
Jeremy Clarkson, the star of Clarkson’s Farm, has shared some thrilling news about his Diddly Squat farm shop.
Via the official Instagram account of Diddly Squat Farm Shop, Jeremy revealed that the shop would remain open in the upcoming months.
Accompanied by a photo bearing the words “We have an announcement”, the post read: “Due to high demand, we’ve decided to keep the farm shop open in January and February.”
The announcement was met with a wave of supportive messages from fans. One fan expressed their delight, saying, “This is great news.”
Another chimed in, stating, “That is great news, because I really wanna come and visit again, I’m not gonna get any chance in December unfortunately,” reports the Mirror.
A third person praised the team, saying, “Well done, for all the farmers that provide and your staff.”
Another follower commented, “You all work so hard…..you deserve every success xxx.”
One more fan shared their personal plans, saying, “That’s great news as I want to bring my daughter for her birthday in February.”
Jeremy and his partner, Lisa Hogan, regularly update their followers, with Lisa typically spearheading posts on their business pages.
However, in his column for the Sunday Times magazine, Jeremy expressed his ambition to increase the bird population at his Chipping Norton farm.
He wrote, “Since 1970 their numbers have plummeted by more than 60 per cent, and when I first bought Diddly Squat this sorry state of affairs was obvious. I’d go for a walk, and the skies were completely empty.
“This made me sad, so when I started farming the land seven years ago, I decided to do something about it. Away from the roads, I stopped trimming the hedges and widened the margins around the edges of the fields.”
The Grand Tour presenter explained that farmers are obligated to maintain a buffer zone of between four and six metres around the perimeter of each field.
Nevertheless, Jeremy chose to leave 10 metres in certain areas to encourage a more thriving habitat for the birds, despite this resulting in reduced food production.
