The Story So Far...
Kaleb Cooper shot to fame overnight on Prime Video series, Clarkson’s Farm. Jeremy Clarkson bought a farm back in 2008, and in 2019, when his farm manager retired, he decided to take on the challenge of running the farm himself – despite any farming experience. With Kaleb having also worked on the farm already for three years, Jeremy took him on to help manage the farming.
Kaleb's early days
Described as a lovable rural bumpkin, Kaleb has been working in and around farms since he was a schoolboy. His passion and spirit are what people have fallen most in love with, having witnessed it first-hand via his knowledgeable, yet humorous, appearances on the series.
Despite his overnight success, Kaleb is still very down to earth. It’s this character that enticed Jeremy to work with him. He’s straight-talking, yet clearly an expert in his field. Kaleb has known he wanted to be a farmer since a very young age. At 13, he was given responsibility for three chickens on four acres of land. Within months, this turned in to 450 hens, laying eggs that he sold to teachers at his school and to a variety of customers in his local area. At 14, he was breeding sheep and working on a dairy farm. At 15, he bought his first tractor. Kaleb went on study at Moreton Morrell College and then set up a farm contracting business . The farm Jeremy Clarkson bought was one of his customers… and the rest is history!
