Howdy!
« on: July 07, 2011, 08:01:59 am »
Hello from a slightly damp but sunny Oxfordshire! :wave:

Been lurking on here a few days and its great to be amongst people with the same outlook on life.
My husband & I have 3acres which we're turning into a market garden to grow fruit, veg & flowers at our weekly market, about 1 acre currently under cultivation, 2 large polytunnels, orchard of approx 40 trees, and some :chook: :chook:! Currently looking at buying a tractor and narrowed it down to possibly a MF135, going to look at some next week! Piggies :pig: planned for the future!
Chooks, ducks, pigs, Bertie the tractor & loadsa veg!

MOrning  :wave:  from central Scotland and its wet and dull here (bet its nice there?) You sound like you have a very organised set up, I run a B&B and keep chickens,also try and grow herbs have a few fruit and a nut tree and have 4 dogs, most of my free food is from our local forest or fishermen giving me thier catch, I would love to grow loads of flowers to cut and maybe convert our large pond into a veg plot!!!!!

Welcome from Brittany, where we keep GOS pigs and one large black miniature tea cup wannabee.

Hi Millwood, and welcome.  :wave:

We're just about to start looking for a compact tractor, would be interested to hear how you get on...
