OUR YEAR ON THE FARM
A year at Guardswell is driven by the shifting seasons, the ever changing weather, the continual progression of birth, growth and occasional death. Flowers bloom so fleetingly, the elderflower is there and then gone, the bluebells too. One moment, the sheep are being sheared in the summer heat, the next you are donning four woolly layers as the leaves litter the ground.
