My wife and I have a large homestead (110 acres--mostly wooded, on a mountain slope) in SW Virginia (Appalachia), near Abingdon, VA. We moved from Ohio 8 years ago (after the kids all left home) and have enjoyed this area and climate for homesteading. We have dairy goats, chickens, meat rabbits, and a farm dog and cats. We have lots of things planted and a lot of wooded areas.

My wife is originally from Japan. She still travels to Japan most years to visit her family, but since we have had our homestead, it has been difficult for me to go with her--that is, to find a farm sitter for an extended period of time.

We are considering getting an experienced farm sitter to help out. This would require someone experienced with livestock and homesteading.

Anyway, if this interests you, send me a message.
