March 8, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

This winter seems to have gone on forever and I have felt it more so than ever before. My hands have been freezing. Gloves aren’t always an option if you are doing anthing with animals and the children have used them in their playing anyway so I can only have one. I have taken to … [Read more…]

I’m A-Tractor-ed To You- Why You Shouldn’t Feel Bad if Your partner Isn’t Romantic

February 9, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

**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.

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?

New Year New Goals, 2020

January 3, 2020 by farmerswifeandmummy 3 Comments

This is my second year of doing a New Year goals list. Last year, I made seven goals and I achieved five of them. I did not lose 40 pounds and my sweat peas died. Rather than focus on the negative though, I learnt to crochet and have made countless granny squares. I started a … [Read more…]

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…]
