About the Guest:

Farming is in my genes six generations back from County Kerry, Ireland. My family were crop farmers before coming to America to become farmers. I am entrusted by God to be the steward of his livestock and environment. I enjoy serving God’s community. I raise beef cattle, meat goats, and dairy goats. In addition, I use my goats to eat unwanted vegetation which saves the environment and people from toxic chemicals.
