George, the peasant prince

The little Prince George8, may be king, being the third in line to the British throne, but he’s not afraid to get his hands dirty with typical work of country life. She was the Duchess of Cambridge who revealed this passion of her son during her recent visit to Wales for the celebrations of the patron saint St David on March 1st. During the day, William and Kate have been on a goat farm who for about 20 years has been supplying milk to a local cheese producer and, on that occasion, they said that their three children, during the holidays from school, took care of sheep and lambs at Anmer Hall, their country home in Norfolk. When the Welsh ranchers showed the dukes a robot used on the farm to carry animal feed, Kate revealed that this was precisely the task that the eldest son had been entrusted with: “It was George’s job“.

In the country estate the family spent the holidays dedicating themselves not only to breeding but also to the cultivation of plants andagriculture, in particular the sustainable one, more respectful of the environment. But the children’s main concern seems to have been taking care of the animals. William said: “They love to watch lambs and feed him. Charlotte wasn’t very convinced at first, while George didn’t hesitate. Louis, on the other hand, likes tractors. ”

The passion for breeding is in the family, because Kate during her visit to Wales made it known that she had among the ancestors «a breeder of a particular breed of goat. It was immediately after the First World War ». The Duchess, who grew up in the English countryside, has made life in the great outdoors a important principle of education for his children: ‘What would I like them to remember from their childhood? About me doing my homework with them, or about having all gone on a trip together, where we might have lit a bonfire and roasted some sausages? Here, I would like more if they would always remember the moments when we were all out together, in Beach or there we are wet like chicksor we’re back with the boots full of water. I would like this for them, not a stressful family, where they are forced to do everything without really succeeding in anything ».
