we're moving to a 16 acre place in wisconsin with pasture, an old barn, and a trout pond! And every night we find yet another book on amazon.com that we're lusting after.

Anyone ready to sell their books about cold cellaring, chicken raising, small livestock management, trout pond management, barn restoration, etc?

might as well ask, right?

thanks
Cath

I'd suggest buying the last 20 years worth of Mother Earth News on CD as a starting point. We bought a bunch of books when we purchased our first place and while they were okay, I found that Mother Earth News had better instructions for what I was looking for.

oh that is sooooooooooo exciting!!!!!

my sis left LA over 10 years ago and is now in Neehna WI. They love it!!!!! WI has some of the top schools in the country (#7 i think) my mom and dad say it is like the private schools out here we spend $$$$ on. They have a huge lot and house and are really happy........

congrads!!

when are you going?
