  • Ep 224 Barb’s Knitted Knockers
    2024/11/01

    October is not only a great time to celebrate fiber (what with the Lambtown and Rhinebeck festivals, just to name a few), but it’s also Breast Cancer Awareness month. How do we get both things in one podcast? Knitted Knockers!

    Barbara Demorest is the Feisty Lady with Fortitude who took a horrible event in life and made it into something that has helped millions to cope with the ravages of breast cancer. We hope you tune in to see what she did, and maybe even how you can be a part of what this amazing organization does to help others. And all with a bit of fiber and friendship.

    P.S. We miss you, Mom, but we’ll keep trying to save the udders (always one for a good pun, she was).

  • Ep 223 James Metcalfe: All Creatures Bleat and Shawl
    2024/10/26

    Every once in a while you meet a person you’ve read about in a book. It might not be the actual person, but is the personification of a character that is so accurate, it might as well have jumped out straight from the pages. Today, our podcast guest is one of those.

    James Metcalfe lives on Hardenclough Farm, “in the heart of the beautiful Peak District [with a] flock of pedigree Cheviots & Luing cattle grazing under the shadow of Mam Tor.” You would never guess that the man is a poet, because his strong, steady farming character could have come straight out of James Herriot’s Yorkshire hills. He came to be a judge at the North American Hill Sheep Show, and though he would not be one to jump the line or show a bit of flash, he’s one that we at Backyard Green Films will picture frequently in the future, every time we hear the word “Farmer” – in the best possible way -- quiet strength and always willing to lend a hand.

  • Ep 222 All of the Hills on the Edge of the Lake
    2024/10/01

    We’re back from the North American Hill Sheep Show in Escanaba, Michigan. This inaugural event showcased some British Hill Breed Sheep and some not-quite-Hill Breed Sheep, of course, but there was more to see, hear and smell. Lovely vendor booths with soft woolens and fragrant soaps in abundance, sheepdog trials with panting puppies, food trucks (with some mighty fine brisket, thank you sir), and ice cream that is famous across all of the “M” roads.

    And then, there were the Brits. The judges (and families) arrived in good spirits and raring to go, and the whole things was a true education in all things Sheepish.

    In addition to sheep, they do grow some Absolutely Fabulous people on those little islands, we must say. Some were English, some Welsh, some Scottish and some Irish, but all delightful. And good sports, to boot. They will be sorely missed – at least until next spring (we hope).

    Sincere thanks to all from the Backyard Green Films crew. Our lives are better for having met you.
