About me

Gender Male
Location Braidwood, New South Wales, Australia
Introduction I live in Braidwood NSW with my wonderful partner and our three beautiful children. I recently finished a degree in Ecological Agriculture through CSU. I'm now doing honours in restoration ecology. Previously, I worked for over a decade in very conventional commercial horticulture and viticulture; I know there's a better way. We're building our home on 1.5 acres beside Monkittee Creek on the edge of town; we've named it 'Littlefish'. I like trees and frogs and ducks and rabbits and clouds and the moon.... I like to contemplate humanity and agriculture in a biological and evolutionary context. Why are we here? ...and what on Earth are we doing?
