I've just bumped into this forum, and have found 'more & better' information here in a few hours than I'd found in weeks of stumbling around the internet... Between the 'Rocket mass' heating systems, and the forums on
chicken rearing alone, this site is the best I've seen, and the knowledge base seems to go on and on...
So far, we are semi-urbanites who grow a productive garden that yields salad greens all summer and a bit extra for canning; we run a delightful composter that makes the soil oh-so-happy. We both have small-farm
roots, and are finding our way back to that. We have a desire to own a property that is self-sufficient, and eventually profitable (self-sufficient would satisfy that requirement) - in the meantime, this site looks like a great source of information as we go about our transition!!
