Tinto Farm Vets

31/10/2025

Well done to the Dandies 🌾
And to everyone involved in the Scottish Agricultural Awards 🐑🐄🎖️

Arable Farm of the Year - Learielaw “We came with the expectation that we wouldn’t win, so it is a complete surprise to beat another two strong contenders. It is a total team effort, we always seek to improve year on year, and have a high attention to detail, with things like soil health etc. We contract farm, so the Scottish Farmer awards is great for our business going forward” (Image: The Scottish Farmer)

✨ Introducing our other new vet - Jenna Montgomery! ✨

Jenna grew up in Newton Mearns and graduated from Glasgow Vet School in 2018. She has been farm vetting in South Lanarkshire ever since!
In her spare time she enjoys hiking and hill walking, although she has yet to make it up our very own Tinto Hill!

Jenna enjoys sheep work, both working with individual sheep and dealing with flock level problems, and she is keen to start up a flock health club at Tinto - watch this space! 🐑✨

She is excited to get out and meet some new farmers plus catch up with plenty familiar faces 🤩

✨We’d like to introduce one of our new vets Matt Jackson (and his dog Poppy🐶)✨

Matt hails from Lancashire and graduated from Glasgow Vet School in 2020. He worked in Carlisle for 2 years before being drawn north of the border once again where he has worked for the past 3 years. In his spare time Matt attends the local CrossFit gym and even completes the odd Ironman.

Matt likes dairy fertility work and has been training in embryo transfer.

He is looking forward to getting out and about and meeting everyone🐮
