Episode Synopsis "Tree Change | Lynda Harding, Organic Citrus, Veg & Stone Fruit Farmer"

Often people think a tree change is a shift to a quieter life, but not for Lynda Harding and her husband Noel, who took on a 1,500-tree stone fruit orchard in Western Australia with no prior experience. Lynda swapped her corporate life in Queensland to become an organic fruit and veg farmer. In this episode, she discusses how she sobbed until midnight during her first season of harvesting, fed her newborn under the trees while picking, and why today more than ever, in a time where COVID-19 has changed so many lives, she appreciates the life she’s made. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
