Land, ho!

We haven't posted in a while because we have been very busy getting our house ready to put on the market.  We are ready to move out to the land and get started with everything.  So, if our posts are a little spotty, you'll know why.  Also, things will be a little more exciting once we are out on the land.  We will have updates on animals other than chickens.  Here is the land:


  It is 25 acres out in Batesburg.   
Once we are living our here we will probably try to get some heritage breeds of pigs.  I think I will probably do a post about that later.  The pigs will really help clear out the land so we can create some pasture.  We also need to get goats ASAP so we can start learning about them and save on our milk bill!


There is a lot of background information about the land.  I'm not sure if I have the energy to delve into that right now, but here are some highlights:

  • We were not looking for anymore than 10 acres when we started our search for land
  • Having a farm was definitely not something we considered when we made the purchase three years ago
  • We changed our mind about the land a little over a year back and put it up for sale
  • It didn't sell
  • We are really glad it didn't because now we really want to be out there farming!
