160 years ago today, Beatrix Potter was born... and we're pretty sure she'd still have a soft spot for a Herdwick cuddle.. 💚💚💚
We’ve just found out we’ve been shortlisted for Best Tourist Attraction in the Cumbria Life Readers' Choice Awards 2026! It means the world to be recognised alongside so many brilliant businesses 😊 Voting is open, we’d be SO grateful for your support.. thank ewe 💚 www.surveymonkey.com/r/CLAWARDS26

It's the start of another beautiful week here in Coniston ☀ This week, we have availability on Wednesday & Thursday afternoon if you'd like to join us on a Herdwick Experience. Weather will be sunny & dry.. though this IS the Lake District, so you never know 😁 We look forward to seeing ewe soon! 💚
⚽️ IMPORTANT WORLD CUP UPDATE ⚽️ According to scientific research (that we absolutely haven't checked), every Round of 16 match was won by the country with more sheep per square km than its opponent. England? A very respectable 100 sheep per km² Coincidence? We think not 🐑 #itscominghome
Good morning to ewe 💚 There are 4 spaces left on this afternoon’s Herdwick Experience: yewtree-farm.com/product/herd... 💞
If ewe are looking for us, we’re mostly hanging out in the shade today 💚
Visiting with younger children? Our Herdwick Experiences are designed for adults and older children (10+), with an educational talk followed by a relaxed session out with the flock. For younger children, we recommend a private experience, tailored to their age 😊 yewtree-farm.com/product/priv...
Good news.. we've just added an extra Herdwick Experience this Sunday at 2.30pm! Picture this: fell views, great woolly company, and not much else to think about for an hour or two. We are famously nosey (in the nicest way) and love a bit of fuss. 💚 Email info@yewtree-farm.com to book your spot 💚
A little last-minute opport-ewe-nity! 🐑 We’ve had a cancellation and now have spaces available for tomorrow’s Herdwick Experience at 10.30am. If you fancy starting July with some fabulous sheep, fresh air and stunning Lake District views, get in touch to book! 💚

Meet Maeve 💕 Our oldest Herdwick ewe has arthritis, but still loves life, bless her. Recently she sought out a visiting osteopath for some impromptu treatment and since then she’s been happier & much more sociable! Can a qualified osteopath spare any time to help Maeve? We’d love to hear from ewe..
