The old adage "make hay while the sun shines" holds true in numerous ways, particularly in the dynamic world of family farming. Life on a farm is a never-ending journey filled with its share of ups and downs, but the past year has been particularly eventful for sheep farmer Sue Andrews.
First and foremost, there was the arrival of a new bundle of joy—husband Aubrey's lively new sheepdog puppy. The puppy brought endless laughter and energy to the farm, quickly becoming a beloved member of the family.
Next, Sue faced a significant change in the way she conducted livestock sales. Traditionally, she relied on local auctions to sell her prized pedigree Blue Texel sheep. However, as technology advanced, she decided to embrace the online auction platform. This decision proved to be a game-changer, as it opened up a wider market for her sheep and allowed her to connect with potential buyers from all over the world.
To top it all off, as lambing season commenced, a new generation of young farming grandchildren embarked on their journey to learn the ropes. With eager eyes and a strong desire to contribute to the family farm, they eagerly joined Sue in her daily routines, from feeding the sheep to tending to the pastures.
This captivating portrait of a year in the life of a Cotswold sheep farmer is a testament to the resilience and determination of rural communities. It captures the essence of hard work, love for the land, and the intergenerational bond that sustains farming traditions. Whether you're a seasoned farmer or someone who enjoys a lively tale of the countryside, Sue Andrews' book offers a delightful glimpse into the world of family farming.
