    Hi Richard. Just a big thank you for including us at Oxtons in your epic road trip. Hope you enjoyed being here much as we did having you. Just a little geographical correction to a mistake made by many, There are two rivers Avon. Ours joins the River Severn at Tewkesbury. The Avon of your home flows into the sea at Bristol. Keep bringing the regenerative farming message to the World.

    Glad to see the wealth of knowledge, it shall enhance our ways of gardening! TY...
    His dad is around my age; I feel his thoughts!
    Last week, I put in for my retirement that will pay for the farm next door, their sons never came back to the beautiful life style that their parents supplied. Being good friends and wanting to keep their dream alive, while supplying a starting place for our community college young growers, giving us 50+ acres. Like his dad said I'm happy to do anything for the farm... great attitude and satisfaction of seeing past and future dreams continue as being a good steward of the land.
    There were many things that you've learned at a young age being around your parent before you set off on your adventure. It's part of the family lifestyle that you have decided to take on, shinning as bright as the rays during the break of dawn and filling joy in so many lives. The farm looks outstanding!
    Did I hear Jakes' mum saying it was in the last year when she saw the change in his thoughts?
    Wasn't that around the same time he took your online classes?
    Your videos and programs are fulfilling the need that's calling from people around the world.
    Tuesday I'm a snowbird back to China visiting and learning from my extended family farms and Guangxi AG University.
    A great life in two countries... citizen in NC, US and family residence permit holder in China, never would have dream it!
    Retirement a way to enjoy the things you hold dear in life, to be with family, and continue your dreams while having fun.
    Springtime, stateside bound and looking forward to watching your upcoming videos!
    Best Wishes and Happiness to All.

The anti-materialistic style breathes through freely. Very appreciated the laid back manner of not tying up customers for a whole season but let them buy a box if they want to. Happy for Julian to take it a bit easy and enjoy some of his well deserved pension. Good Luck to Jake, Jane will be of invaluable help. Hey! And NOT too much animal manure either! Good on you folks!
