I was born and raised in Ruffin NC.I was raised on a farm as a share cropper as a child. We had cows, horses, chickens, hogs, and hunting dogs. I learned to love the land and respect the animals that provided our prosperity to live our lifestyle. We grew up understanding we could provide for ourselves if willing to work hard and harvest properly to meet our needs. We raised corn, soybean, bailed hay to provide for our livestock. Planted garden of all types of vegetables to can and store for winter months. I am a country boy that is in love with country life.

Experience details
I worked on a lot of farms as a toddler and a teenager. My knowledge of plant beds, greenhouses, cultivation, operating equipment and managing crops came from these years of my life. My younger years as a toddler my parents taught me needs of animals and importance of respecting them. Feed and water, gathering eggs, walking fence lines to insure there safety and the gains we achieved by providing for them as they provide for the family as well. I farmed on the Tuttle farms later in life and helped manage the tobacco crop and the Berries as well. I have always dreamed of Farming crops and raising livestock to benefit my lifestyle as well as giving back to the community and helping neighbor's
