Amanda Owen and her family have charmed millions of viewers of Our Yorkshire Farm and inspired three bestselling books. Now, in Celebrating the Seasons with the Yorkshire Shepherdess, 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 and feeding the flock in midwinter. The book is illustrated throughout with photographs that showcase the Swaledale landscape she writes about, imbued with history and 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 favourite 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.

Author Biography

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 Channel 5's 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 top ten bestsellers The Yorkshire Shepherdess, A Year in the Life of the Yorkshire Shepherdess and The Adventures of the Yorkshire Shepherdess.
