Hi mate - I hope you are well and sorry to pick back up on our previous little interaction but I am starting to identify potential plots of land for this and have a few questions if you don’t mind?

Do you have a commercial set-up or are you doing this for self-sustainability purposes?

How big is the land you are working on and how many of each animal do you have?

Thanks

Honestly.. I’m relieved for the sincere interaction.

Food security and isolation were our main goals but we do provide for local sales of goats (6), ducks (15), chickens (30), rabbits (too many), and compositing worms (2 bins). Along with animal sales.. we also do eggs, honey (3 hives), plants, and worm castings.

We just relocated to 42 acres. Working on infrastructure for pigs and cattle this year. Will keep numbers low. No more than 4 each for slaughter each year.

I’m sure I’ve left out loads. Just coming in from the heat.

Thank you so much for this. Were you able to become fully self sufficient on these numbers? 42 acres sounds incredible!!!

Not yet. In my mind it will always be a work in progress. The home is on 3 acres of white oak. The farm/orchard is on about 6 acres. There’s 9 acres of forest with a creek and the rest is open field.

Wow - paradise! Thanks again, if you don’t mind I may send you a little message every now and again to pick your brains about something or other. You are the only person I know that is doing exactly what I am planning to do!
