Would you like to find a simple way to find the balance between your farm and the rest of your life?

When you are farming, the line between “work” and “life” can blur. This can lead you to be living in a constant to-do list. The old story of “the Farmers Work is Never Done” might come to mind. As you complete one task, there always seems to be something else that needs your attention. We have produced a simple planner that helps you see the bigger picture, prioritise what matters, and make room for the people and activities that keep you going.
