From New York style icon and fashion insider Amanda Brooks, a charming and inspiring meditation on life in her newly adopted home, a farm in the English countryside.

In search of a quieter, simpler life away from the hustle of the city, style icon and longtime New Yorker Amanda Brooks moved with her family in 2012 from New York City to her husband’s farm in England. Originally intended to be a yearlong creative sabbatical, Brooks’s relocation became permanent as she discovered newfound personal and professional freedom, told here through a year’s changing seasons. Creatively inspiring, warm and witty, and brimming with delicious recipes and entertaining how-tos, Farm from Home is a chronicle of the joys and challenges of a more focused way of living. For anyone who has longed for an escape from their hectic schedule, whether for a week, a year, or a lifetime, Brooks shares the unexpected satisfaction of slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and making the most of each day.

Amanda Brooks places us right in her wellies as she takes us through a year at FairgreenFarm, creating a new life for herself and her family. It’s a fantasy I often write about, but Amanda is the real-life version.This beautiful and intimate diary includes Amanda’s own home photos and country-inspired recipes. Farm from Homeis an enchanting read and a wonderful reminder about learning to enjoy life in the slow lane.”
—Nancy Meyers, writer, director, and producer of Something’s Gotta Give, The Holiday, and It’s Complicated

—Jeremy Clarkson, host of The Grand Tour
