Hi Macfarlane 
Welcome! Micko and I are just starting up so may well be picking your brains too! We'd like to keep pigs and chickens eventually, so would love to hear of your progress and will be watching out for the advice you receive from the experienced members of the forum. Good luck!

Hello, and welcome

I'll echo Rosemary and ask whereabouts you're from? We have just over an acre in Central Scotland- Falkirk/Linlithgow area.

Hello and welcome from a british expat smallholding in Bulgaria.

There's plenty of useful info here and the people seem friendly too. Good luck with the livestock/veggies.
