How big is your patch and what do you want to achieve, what do you like doing and how much time do you have?

Livestock is a 365 days a year thing - and while a neighbour might feed hens if you want a break, s/he might be less willing to milk goats or feed pigs.

Welcome, btw  :wave:

 :wave: and welcome from Shropshire? Flat is good if you are planning to cultivate it. Less important for animals although it makes fencing easier.
