If anyone of you in Ireland need help on your smallholding, I can really recommend Neil, staying with me in North Wales currently but heading to Ireland at the end of this month.
He is from Australia, and has lived on farms/smallholding most of his life. In his 60s now he is a treasure of experience and knowledge on all things self-sufficiency and can tackle anything really. Hard working, easy going and a lovely guy.
PM me for more info & contact details.
