Hi from Yass

Hi Everyone

We are from Yass, just near Canberra.  We have 50 arces, and currently have Whiltshire Horn Sheep, Dexters, Road Island Red Chickens, and a few horses.  We are currently at the stage of starting our direct marketing of our lamb, and expanding our flock to enable us to utalise our land more, we have a wonderful think of having to much grass.  We've focused on the last couple of years on improving how we manage our land, and soil naturally by working with nature rather then against it.   We also use very min. amount of chemicals with our farm animals, only using what we need when the animals health is in question. 

Would love to share experiences and journey with other small farmers.


Cheers

Carrie

Welcome to Farmstyle, you have a great range of animals on your farm. I would (I'm sure other members would also) love to hear more about the direct marketing of your lamb, are you selling direct to butchers or are you marketing the lamb yourself through farmers markets? 

If you are interested you could upload your details to 'visit my farm' keep us all updated with your lamb marketing through the 'farm update'.

Look forward to hearing more of your farming experiences.
