Encounters with the Good People

77 - Faerie Deer & Faerie Cows


Listen Later

Let’s talk about Faerie cattle. Now… stop right there!!!

If your mind immediately turned to a vision of the Good People playfully herding packs of cows around a field, you are both mistaken and in for a bundle of delightful surprises!

You might be surprised to discover where Faerie Cows dwell and how common they are.

You might never look at a Highland Cow the same way.

And you might just feel a deeper connection to Deer.

Through tales and poem, Kitty tells you how to identify a Faerie Cow and how you can try to keep one on your farm.

We also discover why the Good People value our own cows and ponder the incredible relationship between Faerie and Deer.
