Miles Owen (19) is a full-time farmer, splitting his days between working at his family’s remote hill farm at Ravenseat and alongside his brother Reuben, who runs a local groundwork and digger business.
Miles is passionate about farming both sheep and cattle, with a longer term goal of diversifying into the arable side of agriculture. He also enjoys operating diggers and other plant machinery, providing him with invaluable skills to assist his parents in the restoration of their derelict 200 year old farmhouse, Anty John's. Despite the many challenges farmers face today, at some point in the future Miles hopes to take charge of the family farm or even set up by himself.
A familiar face on British TV screens over the past decade, Miles has regularly appeared with his parents Amanda and Clive Owen and 8 siblings on shows such as the current hit More4 and C4 series Our Farm Next Door, as well as Countrywise (ITV), The Dales (ITV), Ben Fogle’s New Lives In The Wild (C5), Reuben Owen: My Yorkshire Life (C5) and Our Yorkshire Farm (C5). Miles also now co-stars in his brother Reuben's latest series Life in the Dales, which launches on Channel 5 in May 2025.
As well as his many TV appearances, Miles has also appeared in brand campaigns for the likes of Boden, Morrisons, Quaker, The Week Junior and Crave Dog Foods.
When he isn’t farming, Miles enjoys mountain biking and motor cross, especially living in Swaledale, which provides the perfect landscape for the sports. He also loves fell running and football, both of which he has competed in locally.
