Avoiding stress while working together on the farm is impossible, so learning to deal with it and help each other through it is essential, according to Olivia and Joe Morrissey of Rostellan Farm, Cork.

“Different times of the year pose different challenges and stresses and the best thing to do is to respect the fact that there are times when either one or both of us will be extremely stressed from work — and that isn’t the time to argue,” Olivia says.
