Description

After fifteen years of raising sheep, a weary farmer begins to question whether the hard work of small-scale agriculture is worth the cost—until she takes a fresh look at the humble animal at the heart of her farm. Blending personal experience with history, research, and sharp humor, this thoughtful memoir explores wool production, sustainable farming, and the enduring challenges faced by small farmers. Along the way, it makes a lively case for sheep as an overlooked resource and invites readers to reconsider how everyday choices about food, clothing, and land can affect the planet.
