Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

As seen on the BBC?s This Farming LifeThe inspirational story of Lynbreck Croft?a regenerative Scottish farm rooted in local food, community, and the dreams of two women."A ripping good account of the guts, luck and perseverance it takes to create a productive and healthy farm or croft that jumps the rails of our conventional industrial agriculture."?Nick Offerman, New York Times bestselling author of Where the Deer and the Antelope Play"I raced through this beautiful story with mounting awe and excitement. . . . Pragmatism, honesty and openness to new and old ideas shines through on every page. I hope it inspires legions of new farmers."?Isabella Tree, author of WildingLynn and Sandra left their friends, family, and jobs in England to travel north to Scotland to find a bit of land that they could call their own.

They learn how to work with Highland cattle, become part of the crofting community and begin to truly understand how they can farm in harmony with nature to produce wonderful food for themselves and the people around them. Through efforts like these, Lynn and Sandra have been able to combine regenerative farming practices with old crofting traditions to keep their own personal values intact.Our Wild Farming Life is what happens when you follow your dreams of living on the land; a story of how two people became farmers?and how they learned to make a living from it, their way."[This] is a warm yet realistic chronicle of the world of the small-time farmer, sharing a vision of how we humans can feed ourselves sustainably and ethically while living in harmony with the natural world."?Booklist"For anyone who has ever sat in a city office dreaming of . . . living off the land, this book will inspire them to take the plunge."?The Telegraph.…
