We have been blessed. Our offer has been accepted on this 15-acre homestead. We're expected to close in three weeks. This will be in addition to our first 10-acre parcel where we've already begun converting to a permaculture/regenerative farm. We're very excited to get going on this new 15 acres (especially since it has a house already), but knowing I have a 30' X 48' barn and a new 32' X 30' shop all within the zone 1/zone 2 area near the house has me very stoaked!

Miles -- I'm flattered that you remembered I had another place. My 10-acre place is about 9 miles away, but within the same general area. I plan on keeping and working both. So, we'll be making 25 acres into permie heaven instead of just 10.

We can fix it! We just need some baling wire, some WD-40, a bit of duct tape and this tiny ad:
