Lovely surprise opening up this book over Xmas, discovering many great photos of Ravenseat, the family, their activities and the area. Amanda shares funny and charming stories about life with her family and their many four-legged charges and describes their activities at Ravenseat, from lambing and shearing to haymaking and feeding the flock in midwinter. The book also includes her Dalesman columns, published in book form for the first time and giving new insights into her life.A stunning book from Amanda Owen - shepherdess, wife, mother of nine children, bestselling author and star of C5’s Our Yorkshire Farm - that brings her world to life in glorious colour. 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. However I just wanted to say to her that I think it is time that she got off the media merry-go-round while she's at the top of her game.I bought this delightful book on publication day out of solidarity with Amanda Owen - a woman I greatly admire. She has also regularly appeared on TV in shows such as The Dales , Winter Walks , New Lives in the Wild , Springtime on the Farm and Our Yorkshire Farm . Retreat to the countryside with shepherdess Amanda Owens as she recounts stories from her life on the farm, of raising nine children and cooking beautiful, seasonal meals - complete with the recipes for you to enjoy at home. Would love a book on the story of Anty John's now, its history, development, and renovation to a liveable condition. In Celebrating the Seasons, Amanda shares funny and charming stories about life with her family and their many four-legged charges and describes their activities at Ravenseat, from lambing and shearing to haymaking and feeding the flock in midwinter.
