Farm Project Description
Ideally we would like to go with organics but would like to do most of the basics for farming. produce. maybe some herbs as well. ( I would love to maybe have a small apple orchard ) but so many possibilities that we would be happy with.)
we would like to start any time. we have had success with our small back yard garden in Edmonton and here in Victoria. Our very good friend who would be joining us on this journey had a successful farm with his mother in Lady smith on over 10 acres of land at least 4 to 5 acres of farm land. ( he also raised pigs and some other small animals) as well as horses so he would be helping us learn more for a larger then backyard farm. He knows how to use much of the equipment used that he would be able to teach us as well.
