G'day from Warrnambool Australia 🌿

Hi there! I'm super happy to have found these forums, and am eager to grow and learn with you all.

My husband and I live in a little farming town called Warrnambool, in Australia, and are working to become as self-sufficient as possible on less than an acre and within city limits. We currently have two cats, a dog, six chickens, a steer calf, and on Saturday we'll be getting a couple of lambs which will be our future milk sheep. We've had bumps along the way, but for the most part, we have a very supportive community around us! We're putting as many permaculture principles in place as we can, and can always learn and do more -- just one step at a time.

Thanks for having me!

Hi Sage, welcome to Permies!

I'm glad you decided to join us, and I'm looking forward to hearing more about your urban homesteading down under.

Welcome to permies! This is a good place to learn all permaculture and homesteading things.

Looking forward to hearing about your adventures.

Is it winter, or almost,  where you are?

Here we are blessed with a beautiful spring, and all the abundance it brings☺️.

Thanks! And yes, we're heading into winter here :) Thankfully though, our growing season is long with no snow, so we should be able to have fresh veggies from the garden year-round! That being said, I was too late getting into planting last Spring, so I'm very much looking forward to how much we can grow next Spring and Summer :)
