Anyone wanting to do chickens, rabbits,etc  is welcome on whatever scale. currently there are no animals raised.

This is essentially a beginning operation with a Born-Again Beginning Farmer at age 67 who inherited the Farm. YOU will make it what it becomes. I am a classic Mother Earth back to the lander of the ’70’s who had every animal, milked my goats and cow and made cheese which I sold to the Coop of which I was a founding member. I hosted the Abundant Life Seed Foundation then, and now I have attended the Organic Seed Alliance Conference this last year and grew bean & squash seed for FEDCO. I was a truck gardener then and a Master Gardener grad shortly thereafter.   I want to farm with value-added product. I have a huge walk-in freezer/cooler near completion to assist. I want to grow grains as well. and, and, and…the renaissance is on. I am a  Fruit Club  and Grange member. I am a third yr. attendee of the Tilth Conference. I go to all workshops I can and farm tours. I am open to a Partnership. Got an idea?              linda sexton, 360-732-4323, , 431 Center Rd., Chimacum, WA 98325, Olympic Peninsula(PNW), 10 miles to Pt.
