Stirling, Scotland

It is now nearly 40 years since I was first introduced to Beshara and the knowledge so freely given, without exageration, saved my life. I am now retiring from my life as an organic gardener, to devote more time and energy to study and am very happy to share some of that time with anyone else who has the taste for this work.
