RE: Hoar Frost #club100
My lot is smaller than most of the lots around me. The subdivision I live in is mainly divided into 5 acre parcels.
What do I do with it? Well my house is on it for one. :-P
The land itself is an old hay farm. I am refurbishing the land by planting trees and shrubs. I also have my vegetable garden and my greenhouse. I have a number of perennial flower beds.
I have lived here for 5 years now and have battled drought to keep my trees and shrubs alive, but I look forward to seeing what I will have managed to accomplish after another 10 years.
I'm happy for you!
But you don't breed animals?
Probably, the main part of your site is in a free state.
I have a friend, she bought a house 5 years ago with plots of one and a half hectares (3.7 acres). She planted a lot of hazel bushes, a lot of all kinds of trees. This year he is going to buy rams. She lived in Moscow, now she has gone to live in a village, about 500km from Moscow. But it works completely in remote mode.
My wife is afraid of animals. Does not allow to breed animals.
I do not have any livestock. Actually, it is in the neighbourhood covenant NOT to have livestock. We do not consider our lots large enough to support livestock. For example, the local bylaw requires a minimum of 10 acres to keep a horse.
I would say that the majority of my land is "parkland".
Oh, I get it.
I can grow anything that I feel like, however, and run a business here if I choose. If I decide to in the future, I can build a much larger greenhouse or expand my vegetable garden. I do not need to grow things commercially though. I grow enough for myself and some extra for others. More than that and I would not be able to keep it all under control. So for me, my main goal is rejuvenating the soil and restoring the ecosystem.
At least for now.
This is the right decision
