WMRA's September Books & Brews will feature Henry and Priscilla Ireys, authors of The Keep, Living with the Tame and the Wild on a Mountainside Farm.
We will also have a representative from the Virginia Cooperative Extension on site with more information about local agriculture and farm-to-table practices.
Tuesday, September 9, 2025 at 7pm.
Live at Pale Fire Brewing Company and available later on WMRA's Youtube Channel and on Facebook.
When a mid-life couple finds an old farm that promises refuge from hectic lives and encroaching illness, their world opens up to unexpected adventures: breeding heritage goats, hogs, and cattle; managing a half-dozen large guardian dogs; dealing with barn fires, rapacious logging, and the death of treasured animals. The farm and the surrounding forest also lead to surprising moments of beauty-from sublime sunsets and powerful connections with animals to an outpouring of help from neighbors.
Signed copies of The Keep will be available at the event and online at Stone Soup Books -
