The Good Life Game-A Review

June 28, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

If you’re looking for a fun and wholesome game for all the family to enjoy, then look no further than The Good Life. Using your own little wheelbarrow to navigate the board, each player moves around collecting fruit, vegetables and livestock with the winner being the one who fills both their garden and their allotment … [Read more…]

Siblings, June 2020

June 15, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Another month at home on the farm and the siblings are still, mostly, having a great time together. A lot of warm sunny weather has helped and we have taken the dogs for walks, been on nature trails and set up little play areas on the grass or in the front field. The warm weather … [Read more…]

May 24, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

It’s National Children’s Gardening Week (May 23-31, 2020) and, with the country still in lockdown, now has never been a better time to turn those little fingers green. Whether you have a garden or a window sill, there are still things you can do. 1. Make cress heads out of old egg shell. I originally … [Read more…]

Siblings, May 2020

May 15, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Thinking over the last month, I think there is one phrase which keeps coming to my mind and that is thick as thieves. My three have really enjoyed spending time together. I know they have no choice but it still makes me all warm inside that they actually like each other. Obviously there are arguments … [Read more…]

Our Very Own Compost Heap

May 8, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

I have thought about composting for a while on the farm. Knowing very little about it (apart from what could go in it), I started off last year with an old oil drum. I threw in the odd bit of food waste-vegetable peelings and that kind of thing and then mainly used it as a … [Read more…]

Plans For The Vegetable Patch 2020

April 28, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

I think it is fair to say that before the outbreak of Covid-19, I didn’t really have any plans for my vegetable patch. I was simply going to just carry on from where I left off last year and plant a variety of things and see which grew. As soon as the virus hit though … [Read more…]

Our First Year As National Trust Members

April 17, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

A year ago, the children and I were invited to an Easter egg hunt at our nearest National Trust property, Dunham Massey. We had never visited before but within a minute of passing through the doors, I fell completely in love with the place. So much so that I joined the National Trust when we … [Read more…]

Siblings, April 2020

April 15, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

At the end of last month’s Siblings post, I said we had lambing preparation and Easter to look forward to and, while lambing has been much the same as other years (apart from visitors), the lives of mine and most other children have been turned upside down in the last month. No school, no swimming … [Read more…]

Early Spring In The Farm Garden

April 9, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

As you step out into your garden or vegetable patch in Spring, it may look as if there is very little to see. After the long, cold and very wet winter, it is a time to explore with your children and find our what has survived and what has not. Spring is a time when … [Read more…]

Schleich Farm World Toys-A Review

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? We are already well acquainted with Schleich because of their large range of realistic farm animals (where else would you find a pygmy … [Read more…]
