From a young age of 10 to present I’ve been helping my father Peter Clarke at home with his small vegetable plot performing task such as planting, clipping, watering, mulching, weeding, keeping eyes out for pest and also transplanting different fruits and vegetables.
I believe that the training and experience my father has given me is the best and I would like to further myself in this agriculture area.
