hello - Jo Day - 13 October 2016
Hi all, I've been lurking for a few months, so thought I would introduce myself.
Currently live just outside Bristol, but looking to move to Wales (Carmarthenshire) soon, as soon as our bug-out-location is ready.
Been renovating a farmhouse for few years (by myself on weekends ...so its taking ages). 2 Acres of land, own well, and septic tank. Electricity, but only heating/cooking is with log-burners.
Slowly setting up for WTSHTF, under the guise of a degree of self-sufficiency.
Hoping to learn lots, and contribute here and there.

Welcome aboard from Almost Heaven (West Virginia).
Very interested in hearing of your progress in setting up the homestead.
I've been doing a similar project here for the last 5 years since I retired.

Hello and welcome from Cheshire.
Be interested in what you are doing as several of us are doing something similar.

Welcome Jo,
2 acres of flat(ish) Welsh land will very easily feed a large family. Polytunnels/solar power/ham radio on your list?

thanks everyone !
Getting there Harry...It's mostly orchard at the moment (made 55l of cider last weekend). We planted cob nut bushes last spring, and have broken ground this weekend for a 6mx4m fruit cage.
Am saving up for Solar

Hello from Herts
Sounds like a dream. 2 acres for yourself sounds perfect.
I would love to hear your plans for it
Good luck
