'A blueprint for a joyous life lived simply with nature.' Patrick Grant

'Harriet's book feels like stepping into a slower softer world. From the very first pages I was wrapped in its gentle celebration of pared-back country style with each chapter unfolding like a walk down a winding country path. It's an invitation to slow down, notice the seasons and create beauty in everyday life. Calming, inspiring and utterly beautiful, with ideas, projects and recipes galore. It's a treasure I shall return to whenever I need a breath of fresh country air.' Paula Sutton, Hill House Vintage
