PUMPKIN PATCH

03.10.21

Another year, another pumpkin portrait with the kids. I’m not sure how much longer they’ll play ball with this tradition but I did offer a small bribe beforehand. I think Finley would actually enjoy getting stuck in on a farm though, Alana I’m not so sure about.

THE PUMPKIN FARM

01.10.21

Took myself on a quick tour of the new pumpkin farm at Les Hechet. I have to give it to them, they have done a fantastic job with all the pumpkins and the entire area. I won’t give away too much but there’s a small number of calves and pigs to see too! Spread the world and help them make it a massive success, which I’m sure it will be.

THE GUERNSEY

17.09.20

Most of us take these cows for granted but they’re actually quite rare on a global scale. I’ve tried milk throughout Europe and the USA and no country comes close to producing a finer milk than Guernsey. As soon as I’ve typed this I’m heading to the fridge to grab a nice ice cold glass of milk.

THE COWS

15.03.20

Stopped off at a farm near my work on the way home this evening (with permission). All the 40 odd cows were desperate for attention but only one got an attempt at a head scratch.

GOATS

If you think about it, Guernsey is just like one big giant farmyard. Most of the animals are visible from the road and don’t cost anything to see but the challenge is actually finding them.

TYREMAN

21.12.18

Following on from yesterday’s theme, it seems there’s some stiff competition between the farmers again this year. The turkey still gets my vote but this is a great us of materials! If you spot any more around the island, give me a shout.
