Hello from Maine

Very new to these concepts but excited to do a world class slow and gentle slip and slide esque dive into this world.
My wife and I are moving in 17 days to a smaller house on 5 acres in Central Maine. The property comes with a handful of mature but neglected apple trees, some overgrown grape Vines and wild berry bushes of some variety, as well as a private pond, reportedly once stocked with trout.
Landing in early October means most of our focus is going to center on making sure our heating systems are functional and adequate and also stocking our pantry to make sure we can get by if we're snowed in.
After that the wife will be working remotely (after installing the Starlink system) and I will be working part time to supplement but mainly focusing on tasks around the soon to be homestead. I will do repairs and prep foods and plan maniacally for the coming of spring.
On our small suburban plot we had already acquired 4 Chickens that will be making the move with us, as well as grown a small garden and even gave tapping trees and making syrup a try. We are going to be totally overwhelmed by this massive change of life, but also hope to be set free.
I look forward to learning so much here on this site!
