Where is Woodstreet? It is defined as in Surrey, 'situated between the north slope of the North Downs (Guildford to Farnham road) and the Guildford to Aldershot A323. Themes include Wood Street School, pages 42-48.

Contrary to what other reviewers said, this made me think, "Why would anyone do it?" The photos are beautiful and the writing is excellent -- you are a fly on the wall and get to witness the good, the bad & the ugly (fights between the couple). It definitely made me appreciate the farmers at our farmers market a lot more.

To me there are few things more riveting than someone who gives up a lucrative urban life in order to farm in the country. These are the adventures of one couple as they try to live The Dream. Not romanticized, and very gritty. This couple fights. I wish there had been more pictures, but aside from that I found it deeply engaging.
