Farmers Stand In Silence At Auction So A Young Man Can Buy Back His Family Farmhouse - Holidays in Cornwall - The ultimate Cornwall holiday guide
When the 80-acre farm was sold, David’s family was no longer a part of the family homestead. This really made the entire family upset but David was determined to win it back again.
At one point, the land was up for sale through an auction. David and his father decided that they would save up money to buy the land back.
As the day of the auction was approaching, they spent many sleepless nights trying to figure out how they could afford to buy it. When the auction actually took place, some 200 different farmers were at the auction and David and his father thought they would never be able to afford to buy it back.
That is when the farmers stepped up to the plate and did something nobody was expecting.
200 Farmers stand in silence as a young man bids to buy back the family farm.
This story sent shivers down my spine. Cymyned is Welsh for community and I would like to commend our Celtic cousins in Cornwall for doing the right thing.
