Looks like a lovely harmony between nature and “science”. Congratulations and thank you to the Chaffin family for their stewardship.

Absolutely Inspirational! It was an extreme pleasure to watch this segment & hear Chris explain how the Chaffin farm is organic, sustainable and in harmony with nature. Janaia’s blog entry is a truly lovely read to supplement what’s shared in the video.

Wow! Janaia, this is one right out of the box. 10 out of 10 and a star for you. Chris’ knowledge and enthusiasm comes through in bucketfuls. He and his systems show empathy for the animals and trees and is wonderfully demonstrated by the way he held the chicken and the smiles on the dogs that were looking after the goats in the olive grove.
It is people like Chris Kerston that are showing the way for the future of sustainable farming. The Chaffin farm has the lot. It integrates with the community, educates its customers, shows compassion and is mindful of the future in the way it goes about its operations for today.
There’s just one word for this, brilliant!
