But when the snails refuse to lay eggs, will Helen have to admit defeat? When small furry animals move in to dine on escargots au naturel, will Freddie and Dusty the ferrets save the day?Molluscs and Me is a true story of determination and entrepreneurship about setting up and running an edible snail farm in East Kent. Recipes and information about snail farming and snail cooking through history and around the world are sandwiched between the chapters. This book is for you if you are fed up with the rat race or dreaming of a new way of life.
