Summary:
Life is hard on the farm for the Fothergill's. Bob Fothergill has set his sights on buying his own farm instead of renting the one they currently hold. Sally, his teenage daughter, wishes her father would see that she could help more with the farm, but he believes that a girl's place is in the home. Ben, their youngest, has no interest in farming so is ignored. Their mother, Ivy, makes do knowing her husband wants what's best for them. But when Bob decides to take a well-paid part time job, collecting milk for the local dairy, it causes friction in the family, bringing tension to New Year's Day, 1939. Ivy and Sally's lives change. Sally gets her wish to be more hands on with the farm, coping with a bad winter and lambing sheep on her own. When a stranger walks into Ivy's life, who shows her the affection that she craves, her heart is lost to him. Will the family survive the oncoming storm?
