The story of a unique experiment to transplant Hindu principles of cow protection and working oxen to the modern Western world. It began when George Harrison gave a Hertfordshire manor house to a community of Krishna people, and their cow.

The experiment grew into a 21st-century carbon-free working farm in a superb set of low-tech buildings housing fifty cows and oxen. The farm runs entirely without animal slaughter or fossil fuels.

I explain why cow protection embodies the principles of sustainable and ethical living so necessary for the future peace and prosperity of our planet.
