Wilson & Ashley
Unfiltered. Unexpected. Unapologetically Honest.
Welcome to The Wilson & Ashley Podcast — where no farming topic is off limits. But this isn't just a farming podcast...
Broadcast from their unique mobile studio, Rebecca Wilson, a sheep and arable farmer from Yorkshire and Charlotte Ashley, a dairy farmer from Cumbria, bring you conversations around food, farming and rural life that are guaranteed to get heads turning.
Inspired by what’s trending — from recent articles to viral videos — each episode blends reality, farming, and pop culture in equal measure.
With the straight talking approach that followers have come to know and love from these two women in agriculture, conversations are honest, hilarious and real - like voice notes between two friends who aren't afraid to say what everyone else is thinking.
Drawing on their own farming knowledge along with voice notes from friends, listeners of the podcast and industry experts, they're bringing a new perspective on rural life.
Whether you're a full time farmer, never set foot on a farm or fall somewhere in between, we're pleased to have you on board!

Episode 3: Farming Fact vs Fiction: Debunking the Most Common Food & Farming Myths
Put your thoughts into the mix
We’ve absolutely loved hearing from our listeners in previous episodes—so this week, we’re handing over the mic (sort of) and sharing your takes on the biggest myths you’ve heard about farming. From dinner table debates to downright daft questions, it’s all in here. But should we be judging consumers for not knowing, or should we, as farmers, take more responsibility for bridging the knowledge gap?
In this myth-busting episode, Wilson and Ashley wade into the world of food and farming misconceptions. From the rumour that brown cows produce chocolate milk, to the real facts behind milking cows—not because they're forced to, but because they want to—we’re setting the record straight.
We also chat about the vegan narrative, tractor girls and Only Fans and why some animals have horns. Whether you’re a curious consumer or a fellow farmer, this episode is packed with laughs, logic, and a few eye-roll moments.
We've done our research and we're clearing the air with facts, humour and a fair few opinions!
