It’s time to say Goodbye
Thank you so very much to everyone who has been here with me for this incredible journey. I took over this Franchise on 28 March 2015, been challenged in more ways than I thought possible, met a huge range of people from all over the world, travelled too many kilometres to count, done well over 1000 jobs, and owned and sold more animals than I care to remember. Thank you for all the support from my family and friends, this has made us all grow, change and learn so much. It is now time for me to leave this wonderful life of travel, work, animals and meeting so many, to start a new chapter in my life. I look forward to seeing and hearing from many of you in the future.
Myra will be taking over the southern area from Gympie to Rockhampton. And sadly to date, there will be no one operating the north, Mackay to Port Douglas, until someone special comes along.
I wish everyone I’ve met great happiness and joy, remember what we want we can go for, scary or not, it is worth the challenge! I’ll miss you all xx
Goodbye from Karen, Rocky, and all my farm animals 😘🥰
