Ever wonder if other farm families are as crazy as yours?
Spoiler alert: they are.

How many of these one hundred facts will you relate to?

This is the perfect gift book for farming families (so they can laugh at themselves) or for a new spouse entering the farming world so they know what they are getting themselves into. Contains black and white  illustrations. 

Three examples of Farm Facts: 

1. Farm kids are happy to educate their friends on where lambs come from, how to choose daddy bulls from a magazine, and how to turn a bull into a steer.

2. Farmhouse interior décor in real farmhouses includes paperwork stacked on the kitchen table, mucky boots by the door, syringes on the windowsill, a bag of milk replacer near the sink, scattered seeds and straw across a kitchen floor, a sheepdog lying under your feet, and pictures of favourite bovines, ovines or caprines displayed amongst family photographs.

3. Farming lingo can be confusing. ‘Pass me that yoke / thingamajig / whatchamacallit there,’ and you’re expected to know immediately which one is required amongst the assortment of tools.
