After years of moving around the world with the Air Force, my husband Dan and I moved our small family to his hometown in rural Iowa to become home builders. We knew we wanted to raise farm kids and Iowa seemed the logical choice with family close by and a quaint town that is perfect for raising children. I did not grow up in the country, and it’s safe to say that I had a romanticized notion of country life. I was inspired to try country living because of my grandma’s beautiful rolling farm in Southern Missouri and my father’s gardening efforts throughout my childhood. My Arkansas grandparents also gardened 2 and canned their own food, and their out-of-this- world-amazing spicy dill pickles motivated me to grow cucumbers and start canning on my own. Dan and I bought an abandoned and overgrown five-acre homestead in 2010. When we bought the acreage, the only structure on it was an unusable silo. We lived in town for several years, saving money, and slowly making our homestead a place to call home. In 2011, our neighbors gave us their round-top barn that they were days away from burning, and we spent the next couple of years rebuilding it on our homestead. Originally, we renovated the barn as the office and shop for our construction company but realized that it would be better-served in the short term as a temporary home for our family as we built our dream home. In 2013, our six-member family left town for good. We lived in the barn for two years while Dan built a state-of-the-art, super-insulated, stone-clad passive house that we affectionately call the Passive- 3 Aggressive House. We added solar panels to the 1. Our youngest daughter loving on a baby chick. homestead and started producing our own electricity 2.

Our two Great Pyrenees dogs oversee all of our work along with a handful of barn cats. Favorites on our homestead are the pet turkey, Tarzan, and the peacock, James. Bees are our newest adventure and we hope to harvest honey soon. Now that our children are older, we also have 4-H rabbits and sheep, and I dream of horses! We love living in the country! It’s satisfying to grow our food and it’s amazing to watch our four kids learn to drive tractors, dig in the dirt, build go-carts and forts, and help in the garden. Gathering farm fresh eggs, digging potatoes, picking flowers, watching fireflies, clouds, sunsets, and sunrises are all things our family enjoys about country life.

  • 1 a Lleyn Sweep for Local Sheep? Breed Societies and the Geographies of Welsh Livestock
    A Lleyn Sweep for Local Sheep? Breed Societies and the Geographies of Welsh Livestock Richard Yarwood* and Nick Evans+ * School of Geography, University of Plymouth, Drake Circus, Plymouth, PL4 8AA. [email protected] 01752 233083 + Centre for Rural Research Department of Applied Sciences, Geography and Archaeology, University College Worcester, Henwick Grove, Worcester, WR2 6AJ. 01905 855197 [email protected] Abstract This paper uses Bourdieu’s (1977) concept of habitus to examine human-animal relationships within capitalist agricultural systems. The first part of the paper examines how Bourdieu’s ideas have been used by academics to provide insights into the ways that livestock affect and are affected by farming practice. The second part builds on these conceptual, empirical and policy insights by examining some of the national and international social networks that contribute to human-animal relationships in capitalistic farming. It focuses on a case study of Welsh livestock and, in particular, the historic and contemporary roles that breed societies play in the imagination of farm animals and the creation of capitals in agriculture. 1 A Lleyn Sweep for Local Sheep? Breed Societies and the Geographies of Welsh Livestock ‘The mountain sheep are sweeter, But the valley sheep are fatter; And so we deemed it meeter To take away the latter.’ „The War-Song of the Dinas Vawr‟ Thomas Love Peacock (1829) Introduction The relationships between animals, locality and society have come under increased scrutiny by geographers (Philo, 1995; Wolch and Emel, 1995; Wolch, 1998; Philo and Wilbert, 2000). An emerging body of literature is critically reappraising the place of animals within capitalist agricultural systems, reflecting the three main trajectories of animal geography (Whatmore, 2000).

    REGULATORY APPRAISAL ANIMAL HEALTH, WALES THE TRANSMISSIBLE SPONGIFORM ENCEPHALOPATHIES (WALES) REGULATIONS 2006 Purpose and intended effect of the measure 1. The intended effect of the Instrument, which applies in relation to Wales, is to revoke and remake with amendments the TSE (Wales) Regulations 2002, which enforced Regulation (EC) No. 999/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down rules for the prevention, control and eradication of certain transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. 2. In response to the introduction of the Community TSE Regulations (Regulation (EC) 999/2001) and to consolidate Welsh legislation enacted in response to the BSE epidemic in Wales and the UK, the Welsh Assembly Government enacted the TSE (Wales) Regulations in 2002. Parallel legislation was also introduced in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. 3. Regulation (EC) No. 999/2001 provides a framework for the prevention, control and eradication of certain transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs). TSEs are diseases of the brain and nervous system that gradually destroy brain tissues, resulting in a characteristic ‘sponge-like’ appearance. Examples include scrapie in sheep, Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) in cattle and Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) in humans. The TSE (Wales) Regulations provide the necessary domestic powers to enforce and administer our obligations under the European legislation. 4. Since March 2002, numerous amendments have been made to various articles and annexes in Regulation (EC) No. 999/2001. These amendments impact the procedures that are used in the feeding, slaughter, export and import, placing on the market, inspection and movement of cattle, sheep and goats. In response, a number of Statutory Instruments amending the TSE (Wales) Regulations 2002 have been made, namely: The Animal By-Products (Wales) Regulations 2003; The TSE (Wales) (Amendment) Regulations 2004; The TSE (Wales) (Amendment) Regulations 2005 and the TSE (Wales) (Amendment) (No.2) Regulations 2005.
