Publisher's Synopsis
This is the true story of a Londoner who gives up his job as an estate agent, moves to the wilds of Exmoor, starts a smallholding and becomes self-sufficient, with a few bumps along the way. Simon's journey from urbanite to self-sufficient smallholder is brimming with incidents - some funny and some tragic. The transition from city life to self-sufficient smallholder is beautiful, warming and laugh-out-loud funny. Simon, his wife and their extended family learn the truth of what it takes to live a self-sufficient life in Devon, before eventually becoming as happy as the proverbial pigs in clover.
