Hi! We're in Wolcott. We have our cart before our horse, as it were. We didn't have enough income to feed our family well, but we had forty-odd acres. Weighing our assets, and believing any land os adequate into itself, we bought some assorted animals (cows, pigs, sheep, geese, already had chickens because store eggs are gross).
Unfortunately, we knew nothing about regenerative practices, so much of our operation is more labor intensive than it should be. In fact my gardens' performance was abysmal...and so began the journey.
I discovered deep mulch gardening by various names and started improving my gardens. Then I stumbled on a YouTube channel that opened my world to permaculture and all the cool stuff that goes with it.
Now we're trying to retrofit some of the principles to our farm. Lots of fruit and not trees are going in, and I'd love to mob-stock the animals, but that takes a lot of fence work, so it will have to wait.
In the meantime, can anybody hire me and provide me with a little capital and experience? I'm a reasonably fit lady of 50. Not afraid to sweat or get my hands dirty. You can email me at
