Hi, I have started a small farm (32acres) at Mango Hill, about 34kms north of the Brisbane CBD, in Queensland, Australia. I am moving to Adelaide, which as many of you will know is just a little too far for a daily commute.
So what to do with my working farm? What do I mean by working? There is one boar, Kevin Bacon, and his eight sows. I planned on expanding this number to 15 over the next 12 months. On a planned rotational breeding system, these animals, at the moment keep the farm afloat. There is one 36m x 36m chook pen fenced, with a shed on it. The ground work will be finished next week (Early Aug 2015). I have about 200 fruit and nut
trees in the ground, and room for another 200 to be planted out. I run a small gaggle of about 45 geese. The
yard, and market can easily sustain more. Time permitting. I am committed to building a house on the property as well. This will be available for any and all that take up this offer.
I am offering the opportunity to someone/s, or a group, or individuals with differing goals, who are serious about getting/having the opportunity to work on a farm. I am committed to this to the point of offering all the money made from the farm.
I would like to see some investment, in both time, and financial, as I will be gone at least a few years, and would like to see this grow into a life for somebody.
