We Have A Dream: Homesteading for Beginners
You’ve got a dream – to have your very own farm or homestead and you’ve got a zillion questions about how to make it happen. Come to the farm, mingle with like-minded folk, see a working farm in action, and we’ll talk all things farming and homesteading – things like keeping chickens and raising meat birds, no-till gardening and feeding the farm from the farm, no-waste systems like composting and raising pigs, involving your littles in the day-to-day work, keeping a family cow, making the best use of the space you have, and intensive rotational grazing.
We’ll talk about what you need to know to get you from here to there: how to start, when to level up, and what to focus on based on your own needs, strengths, dreams, goals, and plans.
We started from scratch; you can too. But it sure makes an awful big difference when you’ve got someone local (in your own climate and time zone!) who’s been there, learned from trial and error and experience, can answer your questions in real time, and help guide you on your way.
Time: 11am – 5pm *We milk at 5:30pm and though it’s not technically part of the workshop you’re welcome to stay, watch, try your hand at pulling teats (chuckle), and continue to visit and ask all the questions.
This workshop lasts 6+ hours, includes a light lunch, and can be tailored to your particular interests/needs. Space is limited.
*Cost: $175/person, $300/couple
