During this evening’s Bookclub, someone asked if there was a list of the books we had read, to avoid suggesting repetitions in future. Here’s a start, but it won’t be complete so please do add the ones I’ve missed: Sitopia - Carolyn Steel Wilding - Isabella Tree

It'll be such a pleasure to have @adambedders with us for a third year, debating farming, landscape and nature with @RogerMGwriter and @carwyn_graves (And you're so right about Montgomery, Adam!)
This is going to be great fun next weekend - delighted to be interviewing @RogerMGwriter and @carwyn_graves on the Sunday afternoon on all things farming, nature and landscape. Get along (it’s a lovely festival, as is Montgomery itself if you have never been)
