Shaping the Wild: Wisdom from a Welsh Hill Farm
There is a quiet wisdom etched into the Welsh hills, a knowledge born of stone, wind, and resilient sheep.
On his hill farm, David Elias lives by the rhythms of the seasons and the demands of the land. In Shaping the Wild, he offers a powerful and clear-eyed account of a life lived in partnership with nature. This isn't a romanticized idyll, but a profound meditation on the delicate balance between cultivation and wildness, and the deep knowledge required to work a landscape that is both beautiful and unforgiving.
With a voice rooted in place and practice, Elias shares the hard-won wisdom of a modern farmer navigating ancient traditions. A compelling read for anyone drawn to the literature of the land, the soul of Welsh farming, or the quiet truths found in the untamed corners of the world.
