Goals, Values, Vision
I have a vision of a Permaculture Orchard/Farm that has a symbiotic system that reduces waste and chemical/pesticide use and increases revenue by utilizing all resources from produce to livestock. I have an idea of how it will look to prioritize cleanliness, sanitary conditions and well-being of animals that cater to their specific needs.

I intend to use Permaculture practices, which includes animals and beneficial wildlife to handle pest control as well as fertilizer to reduce the need, if any at all, for pesticides. As well as beneficial practices and maintenance that will reduce the need for chemical intervention for disease control.
