piglets over the years. Both children graduated from
prestigious universities but chose to be farmers.
In early August Christopher Hyland and I invited ourselves
into Barbara's kitchen, camera in hand. Christopher's
photos capture the essence of her stoic demeanor,
truly the result of living each day as if it were her last,
exuding strength and purpose. Harry's relaxed smile and
efforvescent demeanor is a constant. It is an integral
part of what drives him, of what sustains the business.
Remaining a farmer in the context of the world of luxury
and privilege that surrounds Fairview speaks volumes
about his character and that of his family. He is rich in
the doing, in the pursuit.
