The Simpler Life? with James & William

James Kavanagh

They’ve bought a house in Kilkenny with an acre of mature garden ready for planting & growing. They also want to raise chickens & maybe a few ducks. Listen along as the city-to-country transition unfolds and figure out with them if it truly will be a simpler life...
