Former actor come Opera Director I bought the farm 5 years ago with a real need to feel connected to the land. My two teenager children are still at school so we are not able to spend much time there. My vegetable garden is my creative outlet these days there is nothing more satisfying that growing picking cooking and eating your own food. I want to give the pleasure that this slice of paradise gives to our family including my two beautiful golden retrievers to others to enjoy - I hope that you see the beauty I do in nature -how lucky we are!!!
