Goals, Values, Vision
Searching for the right fit in Northern Michigan for our family. My husband was born in Michigan. We currently reside in Northern Illinois with intent to move back gradually over time. When the right opportunity arises we hope to connect with the right owner. Our dream would be to have a piece of property to have a sustainable garden, room for a few horses, a small flock of sheep, poultry, beehives, and ideally room for fruit trees.
