Title: Hello from Montrose
Post by: NotQuiteASmallHolder on February 03, 2017, 10:37:35 am

Greetings all,

As the name suggests I'm not quite a smallholder - in fact relatively far from it - but hope one day to be able to realise my dream of having some proper land.

However, where I live does have a fairly large garden which I am looking to utilise, on a reasonably small scale, growing my own vegetables and making use of the local wildlife (wood pigeon and rabbits) where possible.

I've been popping in to the forum for a couple of weeks so thought I'd stop in to say hello properly!

Chris
