Summary

Throughout my upbringing, i have been emersed in the agriculture environment, hailing from a farming background in South Africa. Growing up, i actively participated alongside my father, engaging in various farm-related activities such as animal care, gat and fence maintenance, as well as assisting in general tasks. However, since moving to new zealand, my exposure to farm life has been primarily limited to milking cows, tending calves, and contributing to fence repairs. after dropping out of college into a vet nursing course i realized that i just want to be on the farm and around animals.
