| Subjects: | Ever wondered what it's really like being a woman in wellies, wrangling sheep and shearing wool for a living? In this lively and hands-on talk, I'll share my journey from a young girl playing the harp to a full-blown shepherdess mud, muscles, mishaps and all. I'll chat about what it's like carving out a space in the farming world as a woman, the history of the women out in the fields long before me , the future of agriculture, and why British wool (and the people behind it!) deserve a bit more love. You'll also get to have a feel of different types of wool from various breeds I've sheared so it's not just a talk, its a bit of a show-and-tell too, bringing the countryside to life.
