It's not all me, me, me 🤠 can I help you?

[Heritage Defenders m.DC]

Hi all,

I am not asking for permission on here as tried for over a year with no luck, I appreciate what a big ask of trust it is to let a stranger on the land and never think bad due to a NO or GET OFF MY LAND! comment . I have the privilege of detecting a horse farm local to me for the last 2+ years and even though I have pretty much gone over every inch I still love everyday out with a beautiful view away from the madness. I will be door knocking once it's safe to but I am sure with my determination and in time I will find a farm to start an adventure .

That's enough of me and what I do, Today I wanted to ask what I can do for you? Have you lost a wedding ring, farm equipment then I can find it for you, have you got a problem with night hawkers (illegal detectorist)? Fly tippers? then I can help if needed.

I am not asking for permission for exchange, I merely want to help and build trust in the farming community.

Michael Lee Gerstmann.

From your previous posts, don't you also run a business finding sites for detecting rallies, etc? Perhaps folks are getting a mixed message
(1) Business offer: Metal detecting events organiser looking for land 50/50 profit on all events | The Farming Forum

I do Red Fred but honestly had zero response so had to try different types of land rather then farms which has given the group a start, I also do a free training down Southend for people new to the hobby to improve the image of detecting. I have successfully found a few small grazing fields from a small landowner and wanted to do something positive and for free with no catch's to simply help the farming community separate from my club, helping people is in my nature from a child. I gather you all get sick to death of all the asking from endless detectirists so I thought it would be a nice honest gesture just to offer help and i really will help if needed. I can understand the confusion due to previous posts or mistrust now days but I am at a stage in my life where i want to create, encourage and help those around me and in the community. I appreciate the respectful reply and always welcome questions or concerns and always appreciate any advice.

As you are the only one to reply Red Fred I would like to thank you for at least reading my post. I thought I would at least post a pic up of me doing what I love, excuse the hair as it's my lockdown hair do
