Hello from West Wales (Aberystwyth-ish)
« on: November 05, 2013, 10:43:58 am »
The husband and I have approximately 40 acres on which we house ourselves, our 1 year old daughter, 50 Hebridean sheep, 6 Collie dogs, and one long suffering cat.

We have been here just under two years but between having a baby and trying to make our dilapidated home habitable, we've had little time to sort out our small holding. We're still not entirely sure what we are going to do with the place to make it earn it's keep, but we're having lots of fun making plans.

Hello to everyone in the West Wales area and smallholders everywhere.
