From a long-established farming family, Howard Nash was always intended for a career in agricultural and gained a passion for the countryside and nature from his early years. Youthful enthusiasm and blind luck led him instead to become an RAF pilot and senior military officer before returning to his passion for the land. Before retiring, he shared his time between farming and corporate flying. He lives with his long-suffering wife in a very old house with a rambling garden that they share with lots of chickens and vast array of nature. It is a magical place that charms everyone, young and old.
