The experience

We have just bought the property which has around 10 acres of land, a lake, and 2 ponds and the aim is to become as self-sufficient as possible.

We have rabbits that we breed to eat, fish in the lakes to eat, we planted an orchard and looking to create a soft fruit garden and vegetable patch.

My aim is to clear a field overgrown with shrubs and small trees, clear other areas to create new areas to hold livestock, and to beautify the grounds.
