  Description

  My name is Paul, my family are all grown up and flown the coop... Until recently I cared for my mother fulltime and now that she has passed I want to work the land I have but need help. I live in the countryside near Denia its very peaceful and calm. I have a small farm of about 4 acres with orange, fig,nisperro,olive and other trees. I have 2 empty fields that i want to grow crops in but I have limited knowledge on farming so someone with a background in growing veggies. Brief history of me.. I was a psychiatric social worker for many years in the UK then came to Spain with my boys and they grew up here. Oh and just bought some chickens..
