Bryan Pass, known as Farmer Bryan to several generations of children, is a life-long farmer and runs the excellent New Forest visitor attraction Longdown Activity Farm. The farm's focus has always been one of education and has offered a hands-on experience to thousands of schoolchildren and visitors. His books are not twee tales of talking animals going on adventures, but stories about the everyday life on the farm where the things that the creatures get up to can be just as fascinating as an imaginary tale and, for this reason, the Longdown Farm books have proved immensely popular. His non-fiction books about keeping chickens and his more recent telling of the imapct on the farm from Covid-19 are essential reading.
