Goals, Values, Vision
Long term goals are to have a flock of hair sheep on a rotational grazing system and to have a mixture of pasture and hay fields. Short term goals are to learn as many skills as possible and see what else could fit into our future farming plans. We are interested in learning all types of farming and skills. Finding a farmer that we can have a mutually beneficial relationship with would be our first step.
