Farm Project Description
Hello to all the prospect owners that are looking for a good match for their beautiful God given Farm Land. We would like to take this opportunity to say thank you in advance for considering us.
We are a family of four with fur babies and hoping to expand our family. We have emigrated from South Africa in 2019 to create a better life for our whole family and to secure a future for our children. We are located in Kamloops and are in the process of getting our Canadian Citizenship. We love to be surrounded by nature and animals. We have a lot of love to give.
While in Canada we were blessed or shall we say had an opportunity to have a garden where we produced so much veggies and fruit. We were able to feed our own household, some friends and to donate some. We raised GMO free turkeys and broiler chickens for the festive time that was approaching.
In our busy reel life jobs in South Africa we had the pleasure of being able to run a large mixed farm, producing goats, sheep, pigs, chicken lay eggs, ground crops and lucern.
We would love to own our own farm and are very interested in any rent to own/ buy opportunities that might be out there for us or someone that feel that they have reached their age in passing over the rains to a new generation.
We are very honest, hardworking people that loves a challenge and will do anything to accomplish something when our minds and hearts are set on it.
We have lots to offer and big dreams and are really hoping that someone will give us as a family a real goodness chance in for-fulling our love, passion, devotion and dream of having our own little piece of Heaven that nature can give.
