It’s really dry here on the farm, the grass is crunchy and the land feels almost dusty – pretty far from what we’re used to.
I’ve added a little video to the website to show you what I mean.
We’ve been trying to sit down for our first podcast in a while, there’s a lot to go through! It’s tricky of course – as the County Show is fast approcahing and she’s busy in the kitchen making Shortbread, Fruitcakes, Victoria Sponges, Flapjack… the list goes on. We filmed this for our 12 months on a farm series a while back, which is probably a good video to link you to!
I’ve followed Farmers Of The UK for a little while. It’s a really great Twitter account (if you’re into that sort of thing), in which different farmers take ownership of the account for a while, and tell you about what’s going on with their farm.
Here’s an awesome picture from @weirendfarm who had the mic last week.
Thank you to everyone for your messages since my last email. You words, kindness and encouragement have blown us away.
Excitingly I’ve added a comments box to the website – let’s call it a trial to see if we all like it. We can all have discussions in there, a few smart people already managed to find it and it’s lovely to see the activity contained on the website, so everyone can join in!
Speak soon, Ru
