new girl with new(ish) house on a lake, I can't wait to start my urban/suburban farm!

 

About to start my flock of laying ducks...  positively cannot wait! If anyone knows of local farms (w/in 3 hr radius) please let me know I've googled, called, and emailed just about any place I've heard of or could look up. Pekin have not been hard to find but not of the breeds :-(

 

I just dont want to have to wait 2+ wks, nor do I really like the idea of them being mailed to me.

Helen: Daria, do you have to look at everything in such a negative light?

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?
