Three years later, they now own a Welsh smallholding, where Kate learns that a neighboring farm is set to be dismantled and sold off. Another farm lost; another opportunity for a young farmer without a farm has vanished. Determined to prevent the sale, Kate reaches out to the council with an alternative proposal: to keep the farm operational and establish a rural skills and animal husbandry school alongside it. Despite facing numerous obstacles, Kate successfully achieves her goal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn her memoir, Humble by Nature, Kate shares a deeply personal account of her transition from a London townhouse to a Welsh farm. Throughout the journey, we encounter a diverse range of animals, including donkeys Bertie and Lawrence, pigs Myfanwy and Blackberry, goats Biscuit and Honey, a dog named Badger, and his mischievous companion Bella. We also meet the tenant farmers Tim and Sarah, the local residents who supported and those who did not, as well as a multitude of newborn lambs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHumble by Nature is brimming with the warmth and enthusiasm that characterize Kate as a highly sought-after presenter. It tells the story of two individuals who are willing to follow their hearts and preserve a small portion of Britain's farming heritage, regardless of the consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 268g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 126 x 315 x 33 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781783255061                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kate Humble","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44100198007034,"sku":"9781783255061","price":9.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/3302fdf6713caa59cea33c0a2ce6c8b4.jpg?v=1637119072","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/humble-by-nature-life-lambs-and-a-dog-called-badger","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
