“I was completely taken aback by the huge sense of community here, something I hadn’t experienced since my very early childhood in Jamaica…I was and continue to be really grateful for the support and advice I received from my farming neighbours.”

When I first bought my farm near Launceston on the Devon-Cornwall border, it was the fulfilment of a dream I had spent 40 years of my life working to achieve: a very small piece of real farming country where livestock produces fantastic meat and dairy thanks to the quality of farming and lush meadows for grazing.
