El Presidente de Pollo
This is sort of a spin off from the shop thread. But I firmly believe and have advocated for a while that we should have an Animal and a Garden section.
What are they called?
Sustainable Gardening & Orcharding
Sustainable Livestock
Why are they needed here?
1. This is a major part of any homestead. Nearly anybody who is interested in Self Reliance has a garden and some kind(s) of animals.
2. I firmly believe it will attract any new members because I know three years when I started out we didn't have solar panels and dont plan on getting them. We (like most other) focus on the food section.
3. Sure we have BYC, TEG, and BYH. BUT members here take a different perspective. We look at it and look for ways to frugally and naturally get the end product be it meat, eggs or veggies.
4. And currently these are the most talked about aspects in journals and in the everything else sub forum. These topics seem to dominate it more so than others.
So how does everyone else feel?
