Why I Can’t Go To Britmums Live

June 18, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy 3 Comments

  This weekend is BritMums Live. It is the UK’s biggest, two-day social media conference and blogger event, where lifestyle bloggers and social influencers gather to meet and socialise, network with brands, improve their skills, and fire their creativity. My social media news feeds are awash with excitement. What to wear, what to take, where … [Read more…]

Open Farm Sunday 2015-Shoots Delph Farm, St Helens

June 7, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy 2 Comments

Today I took the kids to a farm to celebrate Open Farm Sunday. We went to Shoots Delph Farm in St Helens. Like our farm, it has been passed down through generations of the Forster family for hundreds of years and they run a successful organic meat business raising cattle and sheep which they butcher … [Read more…]

Riverford Organic Recipe Boxes-A Review

May 26, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Like most people who cook dinner every night, I can get stuck in a rut. Some weeks we eat the same things as we did the week before. Sometimes I forget what I’ve cooked that week and we eat the same meal in the same week. Actually, when I’d just had Baby G, we ate … [Read more…]

Baby Wearing with a Concscience thanks to Rockin Baby

May 14, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy 11 Comments

Baby carriers. They are not something I really thought about with Boo. We lived in a normal house and I was quite happy to push her around in the pram. Since starting my blog a couple of years ago though, I have become more and more aware of the cult of baby wearing. With so … [Read more…]

Our traditional modern family-with Matalan

May 3, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

Modern families. Parents work. Children are in childcare. Food shop gets done on a Saturday afternoon, after ballet/football in the morning. They eat takeaway on a Friday or Saturday night, take a sun holiday once a year, eat too much at Christmas, drink too much on a weekend. Sound familiar? Matalan are using the celebration … [Read more…]

Our Open Farm Sunday trip to Red Bank Farm

June 9, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

We visited Red Bank Farm this weekend in Newton-le-Willows. It was open for this year’s Open Farm Sunday and, we had a great time. Yes it was a bit of a busman’s holiday but, seeing as Hubster won’t open our doors, it was great to see other farmer’s doing well for themselves. I haven’t been … [Read more…]

Sheep Shearing 2014

May 29, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 10 Comments

Sheep shearing. My favourite day of the farming year. It s also one of the most tiring but it is such an exciting day and, with Boo being a bit older, it is the first we have fully taken part in. It began the night before as I prepared bread rolls (barm cakes if you’re … [Read more…]

Open Farm Sunday 2014 where will you visit?

May 21, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 4 Comments

I know you’ll all probably hate me for this post. Half term isn’t even here yet but I’m asking you to check your diaries for June 8th. You see it is a subject pretty close to my heart. June 8th is Open Farm Sunday. It is a day where ordinary people who may have never … [Read more…]

A sad day on the farm

April 24, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 4 Comments

It’s been a sad old day on the farm. I’m afraid nasty Mr Fox has paid us a visit again. He obviously did not heed my last letter to him. As regular readers of my blog will know, our five bantam chickens would not go in the coop. It was amusing how they perched in … [Read more…]

Naughty farmer’s wife favouring some animals over others

March 26, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 3 Comments

Do you remember the uproar not so long ago when a parent admitted they preferred one of their children over the other? Then some other parents jumped on the band wagon and said they felt the same. Well as a farmer’s wife, I feel I should love all of the animals equally but, like those … [Read more…]
