Small farmers, country dwellers and those interested in producing their own food. Set up for everyone from beginners wondering how to plant a 1st garden to experienced cheesemakers to novices looking for small livestock advice to disaster preparedness. Focus on selfsufficiency, budget cooking/building/etc., home businesses, many more topics for living better on less money. We would like to focus on taking responsibility for our lives, and on enjoying people and positive situations rather than just "things." Discussions include but not limited to livestock (esp. small livestock), gardens, orchards, water conservation, alternative energy, enjoying life and "simple things", fairs/festivals/shows, and much more. Join us and start a discussion!
Note: This list is not affiliated with Countryside magazine other than many are readers of it. We welcome discussion of things within the pages of the magazine or independent discussion.
