“Family out of stock at all”

"My first harvest!"

The harvest scene is so moving. Seeing thousands of tons of rapeseed, wheat, and barley being transported to the barn, watching sheep that have been carefully fed for months and giving birth to lambs continuously during the calving period, watching Jeremy deliver the ewes Say (even at 3:00 in the middle of the night), "I've never been so happy at work" and you literally feel like they're farming - planting, tending, harvesting - they're nurturing life, life of grain, animals life and human life.

The wheat grown by oneself is recognized as the top quality wheat, and it is ground into flour and made into bread and sold in local shops - the so-called "local shops" can only sell locally produced things, and they are almost only for local residents. Protect the county's agricultural and economic development. Every morning, I go to the chicken coop to touch the eggs, which are also sold in the local store. What is particularly amazing is that there are only three manufacturers in Europe that produce boxes for eggs. During the epidemic, there were almost no boxes available due to the closure of factories. She needs a professional shepherd to raise sheep. She only needs to whistle, and those smart shepherds will know where to drive the sheep, and none of them will fall. The only regret is that Wayne (a ram) later died of volvulus. "I'm surprised that Wayne's death made me so sad. Because... I'm really sad. He's become my evening habit. Part of. I'll take a walk and bring them something to eat. They'll run over. I'm coming now because I want to see if Leon is okay. But he's hiding in the bushes over there and he won't come out , even food can't attract him."

Jeremy came to the country from London, and he was more like "experienced life", so I still like Caleb the most in the whole documentary. If I also had a 1.5 ton excavator at 21, 50 sheep, 5 pigs, 120 chickens, I would know all the names of 42 plots on a 6,000-acre farm (whether they were called Downs or ex-Thornbury), know which fields are next to each other, and what is growing in which fields, and still be able to plough all the fields in a week with a tractor alone...if I was born and raised in Chipping Norton, The farthest place I've ever driven is a neighboring village 20 kilometers away; if I've only been to the capital of a country the size of 2 Jiangsu Provinces once during an art trip, I wouldn't go down because of the fear of too many people. The bus; or if I actually went to London for the first time because my employer wanted me to sell some wasabi to the Japanese restaurant there, and I have never been 300 meters in the air by lift. When I look out the window at the staggered buildings, I have to admit that the view is good, "but it would be better if there were farms, fields and hills." If a former BBC car show host told me he had Thousands of books, and he's read them all, and I'm curious "how do you read hundreds and hundres of books?" because I don't even have a single book, "I don't do that." If that chatter The old man said he was almost as good as Moses, and I asked "Who was Moses" because I didn't read the Bible; if my greatest interest was to try all kinds of hairstyles, "Because when I get older, I will go bald." If it was 74-year-old Gerald who was harvesting the crops with me, because he has been harvesting this field every year for 52 years, he would not want to miss it even if there is an epidemic this year.

...

Of course, everything in the country may not be as good as it looks, as Raymond Williams probably made it clear, though I haven't read it. A farm is of course irrelevant to a millionaire experiencing life, but for ordinary farmers, farming is their livelihood. Even if you work hard throughout the year, a fire caused by equipment failure at harvest can be enough to burn a third of your harvest, not to mention that bad weather can cut your yield by nearly half. It seems that I shouldn't and can't complain about my life, there are invisible shackles here. The "transcendent homeless" urban people have no choice but to bless a beautiful "village" and a beautiful "life" from afar.
