Tony grew up on a family Dairy Farm in Cornwall and although he has been associated with agriculture all his life, he initially started to work in engineering.
Tony returned to work in Agriculture 20 years ago and joined Wynnstay when they moved into the South West in early 2018.
Up until 2015, he had his own pedigree beef suckler herd which gave me something else to think about away from work, but now I spend my free time with family and my four dogs as well as taking a keen interest in rugby. I am also an avid follower of National Hunt Horseracing and attend meetings when I can.
