[F]or anyone who has ever sat in a city office dreaming of owning a
smallholding one day and living off the land, this book will
inspire them to take the plunge. Rated 5 stars by The
Telegraph I raced through this beautiful story with mounting awe
and excitement. What Lynn and Sandra have achieved on their croft
in Scotland is a miracle of rebirth on land Isabella Tree,
author of Wilding The inspiring story of two courageous women
who took the leap and embraced a whole new way of life. Kate
Humble, author of Home Cooked As seen on the BBC’s This
Farming Life Our Wild Farming Life is what happens when you
follow your dreams of living on the land; a story of how two people
became farmers – and how they learned to make a living from it,
their way. Lynn and Sandra left their friends, family and jobs in
England to travel north to Scotland to find a small piece of land
they could call their own. They had no money, no plan and no
experience in farming. They had in mind keeping a few chickens, a
kitchen garden and renting out some camping space, but instead,
they fell in love with Lynbreck Croft – 150 acres of wild
Scottish Highlands filled with opportunity and beauty, shrouded by
the Cairngorms mountains. This is the inspirational true story of
Lynbreck Croft – a regenerative Scottish croft rooted in local
food and community – and the dreams of two women in search of a
new, wilder existence. In Our Wild Farming Life, Lynn and Sandra
recount their experiences as they rebuild their new home and work
out what kind of farmers they want to be. They learn how to work
with Highland cattle, become part of the crofting community and
begin to truly understand how they can farm in harmony with nature
to produce wonderful food for themselves and the people around
them. Through efforts like these, Lynn and Sandra have been
able to combine regenerative farming practices with old crofting
traditions to keep their own personal values intact.
