Description

I am planning to keep and breed chickens for eggs to sell as well as a livestock herd consisting of goats, sheep, and alpaca llamas, for wool natural fiber production. I will also be processing wool, so having some facilities and space fiber production is ideal. 

Additionally, I plan utilize a green house for produce for local sale and make of specialized canning, pickling, and sauces. 

Personally, farming will be on the side of my full time job in higher education and museums. However, I grew up riding horses and raising cattle and sheep in Oklahoma. I showed horses all through high school, so I am not afraid of the work nor the maintenance of small-sized farming. 

I would love to be able to find a farm to use and work that has place where myself and my Great Pyrenees can live on site to oversee the herd. 

Thank you!
