@ShadowWorker I am jealous. Are you growing produce, raising goats or what?
ShadowWorker · 61-69, F
@sree251 yup..i have a veggies, herbal, and flower gardens,.plus..strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries.
We thought about goats and chickens but fear it would bring us trouble with predators..but it would complete our home.

@ShadowWorker Are you close to a town or homesteading off grid? 120 acres are a lot of land. I have always been dreaming of doing something like that: live on the land away from the city. I am a city guy. I guess you have good internet which is something I cannot wean myself away from.

@sree251 we are 20mins from a small town with a IGA and Dollar store. Walmart and Kroger.....etc...is 40 mins away.
We heat with wood, propane backup for heat and well water.
Yes we run off of satellite for TV and WIFI. No landline or cell phone signal.

@ShadowWorker Sounds exciting to me to be away from the city where you are at even though I know I can't hack it. I am like those guys in the movie Deliverance. I am not as tough as the Burt Reynolds character and somewhat like that of John Voight. Do you know what I mean?
Those turkeys on your land are wild. Do you trap them for Thanksgiving and Christmas?
