The project will support the charitable work of the Moredun Foundation and the RSABI.
The Moredun Foundation has announced the publication of a new coffee table book celebrating the bond between livestock and the people that keep them.
Livestock Keepers is the result of a Talking Science project by Moredun's Lee Innes and Beth Wells who visited farm businesses across Scotland to discover how they support rural populations and economies.
With a foreword from HRH The Princess Royal, the farmers' stories are brought to life by Scottish photographer Kevin McCollum.
All proceeds from the sale will support the charitable work of the Moredun Foundation and the RSABI, which provides practical, emotional and financial support to all people involved in the Scottish Agricultural industry.
Lee Innes from the Moredun Foundation said: “We are delighted to have completed this very special book, inspired by some of the wonderful people we met during a science engagement project highlighting the key role of livestock in supporting a diverse range of thriving rural businesses.
“Working together with Scottish photographer Kevin McCollum was very inspiring and he has produced some remarkable images that really bring the stories of our Livestock Keepers to life. We are very excited to be teaming up with RSABI to enable the proceeds from this book to go towards supporting farmers and I do hope that people enjoy the book.”
RSABI chair David Leggat added: “This is a wonderful publication which beautifully captures the spirit of stockmen and women in Scotland. One of the greatest strengths of agriculture in Scotland is the passion of the people who devote their lives to looking after livestock, and this commitment shines through in the pages of this stunning publication.”
The book is available at moredun.org.uk/shop
