Description
Notice: With regret, Amanda Owen is no longer able to attend. Ticket holders should contact the Box Office for a refund or to book an alternative event.
Amanda Owen, the Yorkshire Shepherdess, has become a household name thanks to her bestselling books and her family’s much-loved TV programmes.
The lives of Amanda, her nine children and their father Clive, and their simple existence on a remote sheep farm deep in the Yorkshire Dales, have caught the imagination of the British public.
The family shot to fame in 2018 when they bagged their own series Our Yorkshire Farm on Channel 5, which quickly became a ratings hit. When Covid-19 sent the country into lockdown and people longed to be in the countryside, Amanda reflected on how lucky she and her family were to live so close to nature, taking comfort from the unchanging routines of farming life.
Join Amanda for this special event where she will share her love of God’s Own Country and celebrate her amazing family whose lives have inspired and enthralled a nation.
