Wife, 2 kids and a mother in-law. We wanted to start farming to provide food for our family and learn how to do everything from start to finish. We plan on doing meat chickens and pigs to expand our operation. We have 4 dogs as well and we play a sport called Flyball with them.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
I have been coming here for a while to get answers to questions I have had, but now that we are taking our farm to the next step figured it was time to dive in and ask questions on your site.
