"Several years ago I had the pleasure of meeting Helene Leichter-Saxby who with her husband Alan was the owner of a lovely Bed and Breakfast called Beckwood Pond. As we spoke, it became very clear that we could help one another and both of our businesses would grow. I own and operate a dairy farm with my husband and son. Because of the falling milk prices in the U.S., we have had to diversify - milking cows isn't hard enough! We sell our maple syrup in our gift shop and offer seasonal hayrides and sleigh rides as well as farm tours. There is an excellent synergy between bed and breakfasts and the agricultural community."

"Dear Helene, It was terrific to work with you during your years at Beckwood Pond. You and Alan were so supportive of our wine and assisted us in so many ways! It is wonderful when small rural businesses support one another so that everyone prospers. It was lovely seeing the way the visitors responded to the unity we all shared. Thank you for being such a strong advocate for rural enterprise! Good luck in your new venture!"
