I am a passionate farmer who takes great pride in his work. Long hours are not a problem for me as I just love doing what Im doing. Hoping to find myself a long lasting job and introduce my son into farming and hope he falls in love with it just as I have. Trustworthy and reliable are just a couple of my traits.
