Shade. 10pm, setting up electric fenced paddocks under this mature oak. In field trees like this are priceless. Temperatures are forecast up to 30c over the next two days. By law I must provide shade at 32; it’s wise to do so beforehand.

An upland meadow in England. Taking a drink from the mobile water trough. I’m stood in the paddock the cattle were in earlier today. There are lots of leaves leftover to capture the energy of the sun. Eat red meat and animal fat; buy the best you can.

Greater birds foot trefoil. Taller than the related BFT. Both fix nitrogen (from the air we breathe) in soil that later becomes available to other plants.
