A change of direction

This is being forced on us in some ways - as the property on which our Gerbera Farm exists is on the market. We are not in a position to buy it, and in any case I am headed to China tomorrow to teach English. We have been selling off parts of the business - plants have been sold to other growers and people who are interested in Gerberas.

We have people interested in purchasing the hothouses, the cold room, pumps etc. Bit by bit it is going. The end of an era for us.

It will be sad - and the grand children will not have "free flowers" to take to their teachers at school either. I will not have them in the house when I return.

But, it is a change of direction and I'm keen to get on with the next part of my life.
