Some of you have followed this farm account for 16 years as we have attempted to work with nature and farm in a nature friendly way
🏞️protecting watercourses
🏞️improving species diversity
🏞️planting trees and regenerating woodlands
🏞️breeding native breeds at risk
All this work is currently threatened by the rumoured withdrawal of support for environmental stewardship by the government
We need a clear message that the public values this work.
Please RT
Nature Friendly Farming is vital for the natural environment and producing healthy food in the UK.

Another Spring Saturday morning with @the_beeguy (follow him - he’s good, possibly even the best! 😊) means another vital thread concerning #bumblebee queens at this time of year!

Great article about their work with Manx Wildlife Trust, on our favourite Loaghtan farmers, Jenny & Rawdon! @MLProduce @RichardRSButt Their fresh meat is beautiful, the cured is delicious and if you like knitting, Ballacosnahan, Patrick Rd is the right place! #LoveManx – at Douglas, Isle of Man

Mary had a little lamb whose fleece was black as soot and everywhere that Mary went, his sooty foot he put.

I bought wool on my visit to TT IOM 2022. My mother made this from Argentina. The best wool!!. – at Mar del Plata, Argentina

@BiosphereIOM suggested we put this video to music. We couldn’t but an amazing lady Eleri Morgan @celeryhashbrown did - to her own composition. We were blown away by her kindness and talent. Check out her music - brilliant #sheeodog #manxloaghtan #music #isleofman

Today is #InternationalWomensDay we’re celebrating the tremendous contribution women make to the Island’s food and farming sectors. This year’s theme is #BreakTheBias and encourages everyone to play their part in creating a gender equal world – an aim that we strongly support

They look so beautiful in that light! Having tried knitting with Manx Loaghtan wool, I strongly believe more knitters and spinners should know about this lovely bouncy wool, which is surprisingly soft And such a beautiful colour!
