Farming is hard, hard work. But certainly worth the effort if you're dedicated to the idea of knowing where your food comes from and having control over good, healthy food. There are days where I wonder if I can keep up the pace. But, I continue to scratch this new lifestyle out of raw dirt. And try to do it without going into debt. So onward with building a farm, complete with animals who make the land fertile so plants can feed the animals (and humans) who continue to make the land fertile. Repeat cycle. Build a house, and in the process, learn new skills. Discover the outer limits of my capabilities. What a great opportunity for growth.
