How twenty-four Black Galloway cows became 'The Ladies of Low Arvie' and helped us to fulfil our dream of running a small farm in Scotland
In 2002 my partner, Richard and I, bought a 120 acre wet and boggy farm called Low Arvie in SW Scotland. We arrived at the farm with no experience and no equipment. This is the story of the twenty months from the day we first saw the farm to the successful birth of our first batch of home bred calves.
We faced and dealt with many challenges in that time, including:
taking my 90 year old mother to Scotland with usbr />
learning to live with a limited supply of water from the farm wellbr />
coping with the only bull in Scotland that didn't know what to dobr /> |
