Farm Life, March 2020

March 21, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

March 19, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

You can’t go wrong with farm toys here, so when Schleich got in touch for us to have a play with a selection of their Farm World toys, how could we refuse?

Farm Life, February 2020

February 22, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

I won’t going to write a Farm Life post this month as I didn’t think much had happened. Then, as usual, I looked back at the photos and changed my mind. For months, I had wondered if Sponge, the last of my female pygmy goats was pregnant. I was beginning to think she wasn’t and … [Read more…]

January 16, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

I am sure you know by now that I love wool. I love how versatile it is, the sheer amount of things you can do with it. It is cool in summer and warm in winter. It is the most natural of materials and is probably the only animal product (as well as dairy) which … [Read more…]
