Title: My new venture

This is my new website (thanks to hubby!) for my new venture which will hopefully be a success!

I thought it would be nice to run family courses so that it's not just the grown ups who get to learn all the interesting stuff!

Your opinions, comments, suggestions would be appreciated!

Good luck, Sharon, I hope your new venture is a success.  The site is lovely and feels 'friendly'.  I hope you'll post to let us all know how the first courses go.  Where do you hope to advertise?

I shall advertise locally and I've put my details forward for 'The Poultry Pages'.

I have had several enquiries about courses so hope to run the first 'beginners' course soon  :)

Thanks for all your good wishes!

A little addition to the site - we have opened an online smallholder store. At the moment there are only a few poultry products on there, but more will be added daily (even more when the football has finished!)
I'd be really grateful if you could have a look and let me know what you think. If you fancy buying anything, then enter the code TAS01 for a 10% discount  ;D

You can get to the shop through the original site: www.deepdeanpoultry.co.uk  (http://www.deepdeanpoultry.co.uk) or directly by going to www.deepdean.co.uk (http://www.deepdean.co.uk)

Thanks  :)

(All my spending is dependent on how close it falls to "payday!")

Will do - hubby is doing the livestock sections - it's taking us ages to put the stock on!

If there are any products in particular you'd like to see, let us know!
