A stunning new book from Amanda Owen – shepherdess, wife, mother of nine children, and bestselling author – that brings her world to life in glorious color. Amanda Owen and her family have charmed millions of viewers of Our Yorkshire Farm and inspired three books. Now, in a book full of stunning photographs, Amanda takes readers behind the scenes of their life at Ravenseat Farm and on a journey to a beautiful but remote place. Month by month she describes their activities, from lambing and shearing to haymaking. Her photographs will show the Swaledale landscape she writes about, imbued with history, and the flora and fauna, from rare wildflowers to the hares glimpsed in the field and the curlews flying above. In many ways Amanda and her family live a simple life, in tune with nature, and Amanda’s attitude to food is the same. She believes in buying good, seasonal ingredients when it comes to feeding her family and shares her favorite recipes here, all easy and cheap to make. As inspirational as Amanda herself, this book will delight everyone who has followed her adventures so far.

About the Author
Amanda Owen grew up in Huddersfield but was inspired by the James Herriot books to leave her town life behind and head to the countryside. After working as a freelance shepherdess, cow milker and alpaca shearer, she eventually settled down as a farmer’s wife with her own flock of sheep at Ravenseat. Happily married with nine children, she wouldn’t change a thing about her hectic but rewarding life. She and her family are the subject of a TV show called
Our Yorkshire Farm and have appeared in Ben Fogle’s
New Lives in the Wild. Amanda has also cooked on
This Morning. She has a monthly column in
The Dalesman and is the author of
The Yorkshire Shepherdess,
A Year in the Life of the Yorkshire Shepherdess and
The Adventures of the Yorkshire Shepherdess.
