I have worked as a full time farmer, full time non farmer and for the last 15 years as part time in both. I know when I have been at my happiest in mind and body. It is when I have a mix of the physical and cerebral, outdoors and indoors, social and introspective.

​

I am not from a farming background but was lucky to discover horticulture while travelling in my early twenties. 

​

I've been doing some research on the attitudes to and impact of part time farming and have a report  from a 2024 survey that got an amazing 230 responses. Head over to my substack to find out more and see the report  .
