Summary

I am a healthy 55 year old sober, married man that has raised 2 loving, respectful, hardworking children that are now living on their own. My wife and I have worked hard and owned a very successful business together in the recent past. We moved up here from Florida 4+ years ago and have successfully built our organic Airbnb bed and breakfast style of farm homestead that includes many raised beds that I built. We also raise egg laying chickens and honey bees. I currently enjoy working with and am developing a caring relationship with people here in the MDI community. I have a passion for growing, harvesting and learning more about healthy, organic foods. I have volunteered for MOFGA to lead the beginners gardening class in Sullivan, ME. I am always honest, on time, and take great pride in the work at hand.
