Hey Everyone,
I am a newbie here on BYC, I live in Lisbon and I am a homeschooling mom. So what started out as a homeschooling project last year (raising chickens for eggs and trying to grow tomatoes in my basement in a growroom under our stairs, which was successful) has now turned into a desire to start homesteading. I've been doing a lot of reading up on things and figured I'd try and reach out to the Mainers on here that might be doing some homesteading. Basically I am looking for someone(s) who would be willing to share any knowledge---- from soil tips.....to the feeding schedule of BB White Turkeychicks......processed some cornish rocks last month had them on a feeding schedule just wondering if there is such a thing as that for meat turkeys. If I sound stupid it just shows how new I am at all this.
I realize homesteading is not easy but if I take it slowly I am aiming to succeed. I'd luv a hoop house or green house but a growing room is all I can do. My son moved out so I am converting his room in the basement to a growroom.
Any helpful input would be appreciated I get enough laughing and weird expressions from friends already.
Thanks and God Bless. Hope to hear from you.
