We owe such a debt and gratitude to all our local farmers. Often in the background, working constantly, loving their calling and their animals and land. Working to feed our communities and they are absolutely our way forward 😊🙏

Makes you think doesnt it. Most farmers I knew had names for all their cows. They were like family friends. Yet Gates wants to shut down farming as we know it, they want to cut meat production but its farmers who feed all of us. Evil.

The Bible tells us that God owns the cattle on a thousand hills. Not Bill Gates.

That’s where it’s at. I’m watching clarksons farm season 2. He just got cows. Funny you write about this now. We need to go back to the traditional way of living. Love your prose you’re quite the writer. Refreshing piece of work I enjoyed it thank you!

* Yes, a very nice piece, letting us forget for a moment the existential days we are in; streaming sunshine, warm shed, big-eyed, innocent cows and the siempre scurrying farmer. The sad plight of the Irish/EU farmer.

* Perhaps you could put in a €10 ☕ button/tab.
