I guess it is about time for a little update. In short, got laidoff in the beginning of 2013. All those years of working for someone else reduced to nothing in an instant. Had a good salary, medical insurance, all the good stuff, all gone. I was devastated. Floated around for a few months looking for jobs, but had no will or motivation to do anything. But the bills needed to get paid and I had to do something. Being very depressed, hating myself, very low self esteem etc etc, the pressure mounted to earn money from somewhere. I was going to mow the lawn at the local golf course, or just drive the tractor for someone at minimum wage. Then, suddenly I realised, the answer is right at home, how could I be this stupid eh? The back yard is right there!! And this is why I feel it's important to update my profile. So, in short, in summer 2013 the lawn was wiped out, vegetables everywhere, in 2014 started renting another farm and with even more vegetables, supplying to 5 organic food stores. In 2015, supplying to 9 organic food stores. The farm and my 1 acre property being Organically Certified of course :) 

I will post updates with pictures of the past couple of years soon. It is incredible that permaculture has been sitting "actively" in the back of my mind for so long, but was suppressed by the need to keep the high paying job, easily pay the bills, being so-called respected at work, and having a so-called life, and yet, not giving a single real thing back to the community. Very sad. And so the journey began...
