Farm Project Description

We are new farmers looking for a place for our small farm. We have bees and a small herd of double Nigerian goats, and we are also interested in gardening, so would like a place where we can have a garden. We need: potable water on the site, space for our RV trailer and a sewer connection or the ability to install a local sewer. Please contact us if you have surplus land that you would be willing to lease or rent to us. We are willing to earn the amount required for BC Farm Classification to reduce taxes. Perhaps you need help with housework or care, we are able to assist with your needs.
