Tour Review
I just wanted to follow up from our farm tour today and also to pass on to you how much we enjoyed it. Daniela was an excellent tour guide. She is so enthusiastic and passionate about the farm it was infectious! She had some of the fruit cut up for us to sample at the end of the tour, which was incredibly tasty.
We all walked away with a real sense of having experienced a taste of the quality of tree to table fruit and an appreciation of the labour intensive work in order to achieve this.
I booked a tour last week for me and my 8 year old son, and it was absolutely fantastic. Jon’s passion, knowledge, and over all wonderful personality made it so fun and educational. My typically very shy little boy even felt comfortable enough to ask lots of questions. We loved the one on one private attention that we were able to experience.
We are now back home in Arizona longing for more island time as you can imagine. Our family talked quite a bit about the tour, and are eager to get started on our own garden again (even though I have a black thumb, I really want to learn more, and try again & again until I can get it right). I feel after learning so much from Jon that it is so important to live as sustainable as possible in the middle of the city where we live.
Thank you again so so much! —Nicki, Farm Tour
