That Dream is Getting Closer

I've been busy doing research and acquiring funding for my self-sufficient farm. Over the course of the last year I've found many potential properties however they all sold out from under me. This last one seems to be staying which is making me very happy. It's on 7.6 acres and most of it's fenced for animals which saves me a ton of work. Plus it has one of the coolest barns. It does seem like the homes are becoming more suited to what I need them to be.

Like usual I'm getting ahead of my self in the since that I'm planning where everything is going to go to the best advantage. It's got a small pond at the very back of the property that I plan to plant my orchard by, as well as the mushrooms. At some point in the future I may build my earth home there, or at least a small cottage I can rent out. Then a garden and some bees and chickens. In the end I hope to have a permaculture going on.

I should stop for now and work on getting the rest of my funding. I just can't help it that my mind is making plans in my sleep.
