GREAT WALTHAM, England — With Britain about to record its hottest summer yet, Sam Squier's almost-200-acre beef farm in southeast England stands out as a lush, green oasis surrounded by scorched brown fields.
Cattle farmer Sam Squier herds his Aberdeen Angus cows Aug. 11 on a green pasture at Humphreys Farm in Great Waltham, Chelmsford, Britain. The Wild and Rooted farmer has made his 200-acre beef farm more resilient to drought through regenerative farming practices such as planting herbal leys and using mob grazing to improve water retention and soil health.
