Join us for a weekend celebrating all things wool! Learn to shear sheep with Farmer Tim or discover wool as art and make felt accessories with Lou Tonkin.
A Humble by Nature gift voucher is the perfect present. Contact info@humblebynature.com for more details. Visit Kate Humble's working farm in the beautiful Wye Valley, not far from the M4 & M5.
Our farmer Tim grew up on a farm and has been farming all his life. Originally from Blaina in the Welsh Valleys, with his wife Sarah (who works in a nearby veterinary surgery) Tim now runs the Humble by Nature farm just outside Monmouth. He has an ever-expanding flock of Welsh mountain sheep, a small herd of Hereford cattle and 8 dogs.
Tim is just about the most practical person we know - a champion field-fencer, he is also an expert at Hedge Laying, Shearing (we plan to start special courses in this soon) and of course in everything to do with Sheep.
A day spent on one of Tim's courses is an inspiration - the first people on his hedge-laying course all started laying their own hedges just a few weeks after doing his course. Join one of his courses, and we're sure you'll be inspired to do the same.
We have a really wonderful team of expert teachers – all locally based – who have joined us at Humble by Nature to share their expertise and enthusiasm.
