About the authors

Dick Strawbridge, a retired lieutenant colonel and former army engineer, has been growing vegetables, keeping livestock and practising 'eco-engineering' since childhood. It was his desire to lead a greener life that led him to convert his farm into an ecologically friendly, but completely modern, place to live.

James Strawbridge, Dick's son, has inherited his father's enthusiasm for inventing and DIY, and his time spent working on environmental projects in Nepal and Fiji confirmed his interest in ecological projects.

Dick and James are experts in the Good Life - and it's the life they've led at Newhouse Farm, their smallholding in Cornwall, in the southwest of England. On just 3 acres of land in the midst of a village, they produce an abundance of good things to eat and drink: fruits and vegetables that they eat fresh, ferment, juice and preserve, pigs of ham, sausages, salamis and bacon, a mixed flock of birds for eggs and eating, and bees for honey. It's been a lifestyle driven by their desire to eat well every day, and now you can too.
