Amanda Owen's Our Farm Next Door has been commissioned for series five and six on More4.

Channel 4 has commissioned ten more episodes of Our Farm Next Door, Amanda Owen's popular Yorkshire Dales programme, to be split into series five and six. Wise Owl Films, the Leeds-based production company, will continue the show following Owen, former husband Clive Owen and their nine children as they restore Anty John's, a derelict farmhouse in Swaledale. The programme has been More4's highest-rated show for three years, according to Channel 4. The announcement comes as the fourth series concludes on Monday, November 2, with the family celebrating their first night sleeping at the restored property.

Series five will pick up immediately after this milestone and will follow the family from early summer 2026 through to spring 2027 as renovation work continues. All 11 members of the Owen family will feature in the new episodes. The younger children's sisters will reopen the family's cream tea van at Ravenseat, while older children Sidney and Miles will take on increased farming responsibilities. Amanda will also explore the history of Anty John's, particularly investigating the life of former owner Anthony Clarkson, a 19th-century Swaledale mapmaker, whose diaries are expected to reveal parallels with the Owen family's experiences nearly 200 years later.

No official broadcast date for series five has been announced. Channel 4 has not yet confirmed when series six will air either.
