The Gentleman Farmer
I am a father of four (married to Farmhand Clare) who strives for a holistic lifestyle where I center my attention on faith, family and simple living. I love to grow and gather herbs and play in the dirt. Since young children and peaceful calm don't usually go together; to me, there is nothing like finding that precious quiet time to regroup and sip a hot cup of tea.
