Latest News & Information
Welcome to our site!
Broad Leys are small independent British publishers specialising in books for smallholders, homesteaders, poultry keepers and organic gardeners. We have been writing and publishing in this field for over 25 years. You can read all about us here.
Hearing The Grass Grow
Katie Thear is well-known as a writer of practical books for the small farming sector and now you can read her first novel, the long awaited Hearing the Grass Grow. Find out more here
Katie has written an engaging story that is both funny and poignant. It is punctuated by a number of dramatic incidents that make the book difficult to put down. She writes with a lightness of touch and with richly drawn characters, calling on her own experience of growing up on a smallholding in North Wales at the time. More information
More Books Added
We have expanded the range of books available to include more specialist smallholding titles and a livestock section. From donkeys to bees, lambing to keeping cows, you will find expert advice to help you.
Our latest book is Starting with Turkeys by Katie Thear - the essential guide for those starting with or considering keeping turkeys
All our published titles are now available to buy online, with sample chapters on many books available online to read as well. Books by respected authors who really know their subject and write well. Books for the beginner (our famous 'Starting with' range) and books for those with more experience as well.
Katie Thear, who owns Broad Leys with her husband David, is an author and lecturer with many books published on a range of topics including keeping chickens, ducks, geese, quail etc.
