Being With Cows Free Event Ticket

Raised in the Worcestershire countryside, Dave Mountjoy spent much of his childhood on his mum’s family farm. After university, he travelled extensively in East and North Africa taking part in biodiversity expeditions and living with the Karamojong people in north-eastern Uganda. Humbled and inspired by their generosity of spirit, despite having little, further adventures followed including a stint as the assistant to the resident Shaman at the Findhorn Foundation in Scotland, where he met his wife, Diana.

The quest for a more sustainable, value-driven life led the couple to the foothills of the Pyrenees where they bought their first cows – hardy Galloways and Castas, an endangered breed native to the local area – setting up a farm retreat. Little could Dave foresee the impact the purchase of this humble herd would have on his own life.

Dave and Diana continue to live on the farm with their two young boys, Gabi and Elie and invite all to stay with them in their annual Being with Cows Retreats.
