In this week’s podcast, Patrick talks to James Rebanks, farmer and best-selling author of The Shepherd’s Life: A Tale of the Lake District (2015) and English Pastoral: An Inheritance (2020).
Starting off with James’ own story – which is simultaneously traditional and quite exceptional for a Cumbrian shepherd – the conversation then turns towards the challenges faced by our food and farming systems.
