I used to pass through there very often - it is a naturally beautiful place with tons of potential, as our homesteading ancestors certainly knew.  Great traditional music too.  Good luck with everything!

Hi Alex,  I'm in NW Greensboro.    2/3 acre in the city, chickens, a few fruit trees and a large garden.   Planning to get rabbits next year.    Have you heard of the Greensboro Permaculture Guild?    I haven't been going to meetings but most members are PDC students of Charlie Heddington who studied with Geoff Lawton.
Are you just starting out?

Hey Susan! We have about 1.5 acrea up here in stokesdale. We have chickens, pigs, a large garden and A friend And I co own 2 goats that stay on his land. We are dairly new to it, probly only 2 years in. My wife And I started the garden the first year we moved in and grew from there. I hope to one day lease some land so I can graze a few head of cattle as well. Ive heard of the permaculture society but never had a chance to look much further into it. Between work, 2 kids, church and the land it doesn't leave too much extra time haha.
 
My previous laptop never exploded like that. Read this tiny ad while I sweep up the shards.
