I am recently out and a now single gay dad living on a small farm adjacent to the Mountain River. I have a herd of 13 Dexter cattle and attempt to manage my land sensitively and sustainably, using a biodynamic approach, and long rotation grazing. I have two teenage kids who are sometimes with me. I have two dogs - a Great Dane called Hera, and a bitsa called Dash. I have three cats, Benny, Bella and Simba. I have chickens that lay delicious eggs, and very happy free range guinea pigs. I currently have a longer term guest from Japan who assists with looking after animals and the farm when I am away for work.
