An intimate and moving account of modern farming and our changing
relationship with the land 'An honest look at the farming life
today. Raw, earthy and inspiring' - Cal Flyn, author of Islands of
Abandonment 'A beautifully written, incredibly timely book' -
Clover Stroud, author of My Wild and Sleepless Nights When
barrister and author Sarah Langford left her city life behind she
found herself unexpectedly back in the world of farming. It was not
how she remembered. Instead, she saw farmers dealing with very
different problems to those faced by her grandfather, considered a
hero for having fed a starving nation after war. Now farmers faced
accusations of ecological mismanagement by a hostile urban media
whilst battling extreme weather and political upheaval. Yet as
Sarah learned how to farm and grew closer to the land, she
discovered a new generation on a path of regenerative change. In
Rooted, Sarah weaves her own story around those who taught her what
it means to be a farmer. She shines a light on the human side of
modern farming, and shows how land connects us all, not only in
terms of global sustainability but in our relationships with our
physical and mental health, our communities and our planet.
'Moving, startling, uplifting, galvanising and unsettling, this
plainly beautiful book is one of those rare few that changes how
you see the world around you' - Ella Risbridger, author of The Year
of Miracles 'Heartbreaking and hopeful, this story of a farming
revival has never been more important' - Esther Freud
