Jimmy breaks down how deep the rabbit hole goes, how much gear is actually hanging off his house, and why once you start, there’s no turning back.Alongside the lights, the conversation dives into life as an avocado farmer. Jimmy explains how seasonal farming really works, what a good avocado tree actually produces, where the fruit ends up, and why most people have no idea how thin the margins really are once freight, labour, and supermarkets take their cut.It’s a proper country yarn about family, work ethic, passion projects, and doing something purely for the joy it brings other people, especially kids. No influencers, no hype, just someone backing an idea and going all in.If you’re into Australian farming stories, Christmas traditions, small business realities, or people who build something cool from scratch, this episode is a ripper.Wholesome, honest, and a proper true yarn from start to finish.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast.
