Title: Looking for new smallholding
Post by: martinamercer on May 10, 2010, 08:53:31 am

My husband runs a soft fruit business, and I am an author. We have been told that we have to move out of our smallholding, but are finding it very difficult to find somewhere new.

We have chickens geese and ducks also and are only looking for a couple of acres that we can use for crops. We're in the north yorkshire moors.

Does anyone know of anything?

Thankyou, and a pleasure to meet you all.

Martina

Lots of places, and low prices, in West Wales if that's not too far out  ;). Try googling Rural Scene and The Smallholding Centre for a start.
