...Scott lives where you are typing about? He lives at a fairly high elevation zone. I'm not taking the piss. I'm telling you you have a contact if you connect and say 'Lance WIldwood' said I might learn something from you vis a vi buying a property near you. This is my student (first) and a student of Scott's. [ link to permaculture.org (secure)] Dive in, don't diss. The reason for people who know things you don't, is so that you can learn things you never imagined. Quoting: Saint Lance the Odd from BC OK, I did not understand your comment at first. Not dissing; I simply think ag would be difficult. Checking your link now. And THANKS for the tip! OK, I read the stories at the link. Jack Spirko, who I listen to, is also a promoter of permaculture. When I think of being a prepper at that altitude with that climate, I am thinking that some fruit trees are possible. A veggie garden will need a greenhouse. Of course, we can also build a barn and board horses for people. I would almost certainly build a good chicken house and yard since I love my fresh eggs more than almost any food that I grow. We rotate chickens through our garden areas here with great success. My chickens clean up the garden while consuming bugs and depositing wonderful fertilizer. BTW, we have about 30 baby geese I just hatched out of the incubator. They would survive the cold climate there just fine as long as I can keep coyotes and bears away from them. These are pretty hardy and feed off ticks [ link to backyardpoultry.iamcountryside.com (secure)] I tried Guineas a few years ago. They are a popular substitute for turkeys in Central America. They began eating chicken eggs, so I moved them to my pasture with the cows. Unfortunately, a bobcat ate them all in about a week. I do LOVE that they each harmful bugs. BTW, I have never seen a tick in this part of Texas. The fire ants eat them which is the only redeeming quality of fire ants.
