So, this amazing thing just happened. I’m absolutely thrilled to have won Lakeland Book of the Year 2023 against incredible competition. Love giving a platform for these voices #Fortyfarms

Thinking about running a small 3-night photo trip to Budapest next year during the Christmas markets ✨📸 5-star stay, great food, relaxed pace, night cruise on the Danube, golden hour magic all over the city. Who might be interested—no commitment? #Budapest #PhotographyTrip

@fellranger1 Congratulations to you both! That’s brilliant news 👏🏻

A first for us - the Countrystride podcast received the Inaugural 'Members' Award' of the OWPG after the AGM & dinner at the Blencathra Centre.

@ByLakeland @fellranger1 @Croftfoot @TheBeaconMuseum How long is it there? I will put the info on our community Facebook page. Hope you are thriving in this weather.., Mark is OK but the heat knocks me out, so I’m staying inside!

@Croftfoot's superb Forty Farms exhibition – which has been touring the country – has come home to Cumbria, at Whitehaven's @TheBeaconMuseum. Another chance to see Amy's photos on the wall.

@NikitaJGarner Looks good on your new coffee table 😊

@Croftfoot book making beautiful coffee table reading material.

I’ve been after a coffee table for this spot for ages as it was just a bit blank. IKEA of all places just brought this out and I’m really happy with it! We’ve lived here over nine years and we’re always finding new things to chip away at. Next to chip away at the hoovering… 😒

Total idiots Every metric shows we are creating problems Damaging our own farming community and then importing more Makes zero sense

Tickets still available for my behind the scenes talk at Keswick's Theatre by the Lake on Monday 2nd June. Lots of trade secrets, funny anecdotes and theatrical models in this entertaining evening - hope to see you there! theatrebythelake.com/event/shooti...

Can someone explain to me how we can cheapen food, end farm support, retain domestic food production, have food security and create a more sustainable and nature friendly farming system? No? OK thanks

@Sarahbellagri I’m there 👍🏼 slowly sacking this off.

Went to bluesky, it’s like here 10 years ago, even looks the same…. With a good proportion of the lovely food/farming/nature people who used to be here.
