After a big decision by my partner, he has finally decided that the farm is not up to the mark and even reopening the dairy is not able to produce enough income to keep us going as well as feeding all the cattle and the sheep. The upgrade to the power after an unfortunate accident, (unwitnessed) and the future upgrade to the irrigation system is going to be too much to handle. Leigh is 60 next month and I am 59. We could have rattled on for awhile as we were but now with no real spring rain all the feed has gone off,
So the farm is going on the market, with photos being taken on Monday, and the signs going up as well for internet access to the real estate agents.
Unfortunately one does not know how long this could take considering the poor economic climate.
Being as it may, it is a good property for someone just starting out with extra money to put into the things that we can't financially do. Lots of shedding as well, including my studio.
My crafting will go on as usual, and hopefully I will access other markets as I won't have to think of too many animals.
Leigh's mother is aging and is becoming more frail and so has been needing a lot of help, and there is nowhere for her to go, yet.
