Comment by Robert Abbott on November 10, 2015 at 4:08am

My name is Robert Abbott and I’m from a small farming community located in Oxford County called Tillsonburg. As a teenager growing up I worked the tobacco fields as the song by Stompin Tom Connor’s so adequately describes. I work for T.L. Willaert Realty Brokerage Ltd and I devote my time to farm and vacant land real estate sales in an industry I feel passionate about. My blog will be focused on general agricultural news while incorporating real estate topics that effect the agriculture industry within the province of Ontario and the rest of Canada. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them. I invite you to visit my real estate website canadianfarmlandforsale.ca to learn more about myself and the services I provide to my client and customers.
