Hi All!

I'm a total newbie here. My family and my parents are planning on buying land to start growing our own food, raising goats for milk for drinking making soap/lotions and other animals that will help us make our land the best it can be.
We're all townies, well burbies I guess is more accurate, so this is all new to us, but we're so very excited to get started and find our new home.

Hello there,

My name is Lilly and I've been living with my family on our 53 Acre property (4 hours south of Sydney) for about 15 years now. In now a new mum and have purchased a share in the property with my partner, so it's now the two of us along with my Mother. We have a few hand reared sheep, chooks, a few horses and have had a handful of cattle in the past but none for a few years now.

Dear all

I am a new member and would appreciate your help.

I am reviewing purchasing a modest property (20-30 hectares) in the Northern River area of NSW (near Byron Bay). Sydney CBD life ain't what it used to be.

To my knowledge, the Northern Rivers area enjoys good rainfall and tends to look very 'green'. I note a lot of locals are growing nuts (macadamia, etc) and some run beef cattle.

Hi,

Phil. Newby. Just inherited 20 acres of grapes. 80% sultana grapes and 20% white wine.
I'm a sparky and know nothing about grape farming. Gulp!!
Grew up on farms but none had grapes.

Hi everyone, I'm from southwest Brisbane and am starting my own small herd. I'm right at the beginning - I have a brangus heifer coming in 3-4 months, and am looking to have in here for a short period, then move to agistment. I plan to build the herd up over time as I can pick up cattle at the right price, and put a bull over the heifers when they are ready.

Hi guys, I'm interested in getting half a dozen Dorper lambs , I'm on 5 acres north of Brisbane, any tips or help would be much appreciated as these will be my first sheep. Would anyone know a breeder near Brisbane that I could get some lambs?
Thanks
Darryl
