We jumped in at the deep end and bought a farm! A reluctant wife, a couple of crazy kids and a husband whose knowledge of farming you could write on the back of a stamp What could go wrong ! Kelvin



Exactly! And the journey has only just begun Liz



Join the Fletchers as they navigate the peaks and troughs of life on a lively farm.



When Kelvin and Liz Fletcher left their happy home in Oldham for a 120-acre farm in the Peak District, they were totally unaware of the surprises that lay in store. Come along for the ride as they navigate the Mishaps, like shearing sheep in a way that costs more than the price for the wool; the Lessons, such as never turn your back on a flock of sheep or, put simply, always close the gate! and the Adventures, going from self-professed townies to farmhands overnight.



In Fletchers on the Farm, childhood sweethearts Kelvin and Liz reflect on their history, their future and their daily balancing act of juggling acting careers, four young children and a farmyard full of animals. With wise words on building and nurturing a happy farm and family, this uplifting, heartwarming book is about following your dreams even if you have no clue how to do it!



Time to pull on those wellies and get stuck into a farming adventure like no other.





Like any farm, determination and perseverance are vital. We took a huge step into the unknown and, together, we havent looked back. The adventure continues!
