Hey everyone!
I'm a traveling rancher and I've been helping people start homesteads, monetize their ranches, learn and convert to regenerative, sustainable, market producing, and holistic, and more.
I usually exchange work for rental and utilities as well as some land use for garden and animals space-- as well as partnership plans for market possibilities.
I've gardened and ranched in 5 states, all different climates and have worked with many animals from cows to quail and everything in between.
I have helped people plan with many different aspects of ranching and farming and started a youtube channel to share what I teach.
My favorite hustle to start and teach is 50 chickens to 28k a month in 10 months. Ive helped people figure ways to scale, convert, and systematize and I'm experienced with the business side of things as well. I've worked in business development and marketing, making websites and blogs, content creation, and web copy, product development and brand strategy, as well as bookkeeping.
I love solving problems creatively and working in teams or alone, and also have a lot to learn.
Currently I'm in South Texas and would be looking to stay in Texas or also consider the Ozarks.
I'm a single mother that unschools and have a plutonic F-roommate I travel with. We are EX-vaxxers, non-masker and wide awake, so please be aware before you contact me.
I have a lot of experience with most farm animals, including rabbits and some exotics. Holistic gardening in many styles, prefer no-till. I will not work in any chemicals or modern vet practices as a general rule. We don't need them. Other important skills- herbalism, medicinals and making wild medicines, permaculture and creating food forests, cottage industries, processing, regenerative grazing, farm layout and set up in all aspects, carpentry, farm stands and farmers markets, online and alt. sales, csa and coop course and I totally geek out on soil and compost and am trying to get into the soil food web course. (That's a short list)
I teach about hidden food, true sustainability, making do, and creative problem solving.
If you are a serious new farmer that needs help, an elderly family farm that wants to keep things going, a serious community interested in ramping up your food production, or someone that knows what time we're living in and wants to do more, let's chat.
I'm a woman of faith and integrity, work ethic and kindness. I can make hard decisions and wear many hats. What I will not do is be a ranch hand- but a partner that takes ownership with a heart for stewardship of anything I'm given.
I do have references, lots of management experience, entrepreneurship, training, teaching, and many other homestead skills. No property is too big, but would like to work on at least a 10-15+ acre farm.
Please only very serious and committed ranchers. My time is valuable also. If you would like to see my full list of skills and experience and discuss I can help you and your community, please let me know.
I also love to teach others about what I do and how you can also do it, and increase skills so you can be more valuable in these shifting times.
Bless you all and looking forward to chatting.
Tara
