Event Description
Host: Kathy Isherwood
I purchased this property in 2000. I was attracted to the property as it was extensively covered with native trees & undergrowth including shrubs, grasses, & diverse ground covers. My main plan was to rehabilitate the bush & protect this as a conservation area in perpetuity. This has been achieved with most of the 32 hectares covered by this conservation plan. The remaining area is set aside for rescued & abandoned farm animals & many roosters in need of a home. I have an organic orchard under development which will one day incorporate vegetables. The work on maintaining the natural area is always ongoing as each season presents new challenges. I would like to believe I will leave the property, & the animals that call it home in a much improved state.
Members of LETS will be joining us for the field day. They will be trading so we can find out what LETS is all about.
Addition Details

Toilet available in the house. There is a small dam that is not enclosed. All other dams, animals etc are enclosed.
