Hi!
I have a small homestead farm in Londonderry. We have goats, cows and sheep. Next spring would like to add turkeys, chickens and pigs. I have a small business and lost the guy that was helping on the farm with the day to day feeding and cleaning. We do no meds or feed. Full grass fed in two day rotational pastures. In exchange for work I offer a room in a two bedroom house shared with a super nice guy who is there only a couple of weeks a month.
