We are moving to a smallholding in Herefordshire next week over on the Welsh border near Kington. Very excited but very aware that we have a lot to learn and possibly slightly older than most. Is there anyone around that area as it would be nice to get to know others with the same interests.

Hi and welcome from Carmarthenshire

We moved here last year and have 2.5 acres, a few sheep, 2 pigs, 2 geese and some chickens all of which are completely new to us. We aren't exactly spring chickens ourselves but its a great experience

Hello newtoitall

welcome to TAS. I'm in Worcestershire so if you ever fancy a trip over the border you'd be welcome here! There are a couple of members from Herefordshire.

from central scotland, I only have chickens and not many now but I think you will find a lot of people retire or semi retire and get a second chance to have an alternative life....its a great way to live!!

Hello from Bala N Wales, I still feel new to it all after 2 years!! Enjoy, and we (and 'the elders' as I like to think of the more experienced ones on here) will be here for any questions! I couldn't have mangaged without them!

How exciting, good luck with it and hope it's everything you wished for.

and welcome from Shropshire. There are a lot of us on here who are no longer spring chickens, so unless you are over 70 you are in with your age group. there may even be a few seventy somethings that I don't know about.

Thank you for all the welcoming messages. We are just short of our bus passes so it sounds as if we are not alone. I am sure once we have actually moved the questions will start coming.
