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…]

**Contains an image of a fox ravaged duck It’s been a funny old month on the farm. Christmas has been and gone and in terms of farm life, everything carried on as usual.

8 Amazing Crafts You Can Do With Wool

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…]

How to Eat Sustainably and Shop Local

January 13, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

I recently wrote a post about how eating sustainably could save the world. It got quite a bit of interest. The problem is though, how do you eat locally and sustainably? It’s all very well people like me saying this is the way forward but some people, quite rightly, are unsure of how to even … [Read more…]

Eat Sustainably and Save the World

January 9, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy 4 Comments

January seems to have become all about Veganuary and it will be followed by Febudairy and whatever else gets thought up next. As a farmer’s wife, I have to back British farming whether it be Lamuary or anything else. If however you are expecting a one-sided post here, you may as well stop reading now. … [Read more…]

My Most Popular Blog Posts of 2019

December 30, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

When I write a blog post, I always hope it will be popular, that people will read it, enjoy reading it and possibly share it with their friends. However, if there is one thing I have learnt from writing a blog is that I never know if a post will be popular until I’ve sat … [Read more…]

Farm Life, December 2019

December 12, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Another month and a whole year of farm life. December has brought a definite chill but still with the ever present addition of rain. The grass has stopped growing and the mud is as muddy as ever so natural forage is almost non existent. We moved the Ryeland sheep into another field which I filmed … [Read more…]

Farm Themed Christmas Books For Children

December 9, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

We love farm books and we love Christmas books so finding titles that are Christmassy and farm related is a massive bonus. I like to put Christmas books away in January so that they are fresh for the next year but some of these titles stay out all year because they are so loved. 1. … [Read more…]

Making An Entrance In The Farmhouse (Or Not)

December 5, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

The entrance to your home is where visitors come in. Snap judgements can be made on the state of someone’s front door or door mat. You want to make a good impression. For farms though, the entrance to your home is probably the most high-traffic area in the whole farm. It is where wellies are … [Read more…]

Farm Life, November 2019

November 20, 2019 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

You know how in some magazines, they have a going up and going down popularity column? I think I should do one for my Farm Life post each month. This month, chihuahuas are going up, donkeys are going down and goats are somewhere in the middle. I wrote a whole post a while back about … [Read more…]
