Summary

East Hill Tree Farm is my new sponsor. It’s the place where I buy all my trees and berry bushes so it’s easy to wax poetic about them. Also it’s a barter. Nicko Rubin is planting some trees here and giving me gardening advice in exchange for the sponsorship. I like this arrangement. So I wrote a song about it with my friend Justin Lander, which I think you will enjoy.
