Grow it Yourself

I just purchased Michael O’Kelly’s book Tales from the Home Farm.  I’ve long harboured a desire to follow in Hugh’s River Cottage footsteps of becoming a small hold farmer, growing my own veg and rearing my own animals for meat.  This has become even more important to me since the birth of my daughter, Eve.  And now thankfully there’s an Irish book on the subject.  Along with his first book Trading Paces, I should have some interesting reading for the summer.  Watch this space, I could have some livestock and a polytunnel before it’s all over ;o)
