Born and raised on a South Kaipara farm, Keren Mackay has now moved from being a Professional Countrywoman on a 10 acre block to a slightly bigger block near the town of Palmerston in Otago – where countrywomen tend to live on 10,000 acre blocks rather than 10! Apart from working part time for Heritage New Zealand at Totara Estate near Oamaru, Keren has launched a new venture called The Professional Countrywoman Network.

Happy Sheep
Our little flock of sheep have just been blade shorn by an expert - Richard Hore of Oamaru. He had the choice to use a machine but prefers to blade shear! A very quiet process and the sheep I am sure enjoyed the gently handling. This pic shows Richard blade shearing but not my sheep - I was not able to be there that day so this one came from a demonstration he did at Totara Estate. The sheep are feeling much better thank you - still got their "Singlets" on as they say about the blade shearing.
