Hefted to the Howgills

This is Andrea’s fifth book in as many years. Through her books we learn as she learns about farming following in the footsteps of her shepherd ancestors to continue a traditional way of farming which respects animals and environment. The goal she has set is to have a sustainable upland farm.

‘A book about how native animals and local people are hefted to the fells, and, above all, a heart-warming story of the courage and perseverance needed by everybody involved in farming’ Cumberland & Westmorland Herald

‘Andrea… has won respect for the way she approaches her job, growing her own hay to feed the animals year round and choosing local and heritage breeds.’ Cumbria Life
