Hello All
Just found this forum, don't have a smallholding just an allotment,but as an ex farmworker
still very interested in all things to do with livestock, I milked Ayrshires for 30 years before
 the arrival of milking parlours and Holstein Fresians scunnered me with dairying.
Find the forum very interesting,good luck to all you lucky people who have a smallholding of
whatever size

Welcome from another Clackie.  Could someone explain to me the difference between an allotment and a smallholding?  I personally think you could quite reasonably call yourself a smallholder, Stooriefit ;D ;D
