Future Plans

    I have been an animal lover my whole life. There are few things I love more than spending time in nature with all my feather and fur babies. I have always dreamt of one day owning my own small farm and filling it with all the types of animals I grew up with. 

    Part of that dream was finding a partner who shares those same interests and who might someday also want to have a farm with animals. Well, it's been almost four years now and my boyfriend actively researches ways to improve our chicken coop and different ways to keep the goats happy and busy. Needless to say, we share the same interests and both have hopes of expanding our own farm together one day. 

    Like I mentioned in my biography, I am a true townie and love the town I live and work in. If I could stay in this town forever, I would. Unfortunately, with the way the housing market has been and with how expensive my town is, it is uncertain if we will be able to afford a house here. Knowing this, we have explored neighboring towns, some with much more farm land and some that are 'right to farm' communities. While I'd love to be a townie forever, I've really enjoyed looking around in other towns and seeing the some potential dream farms. 

    One day, when we finally do have a home of our own, I know for a fact my first outdoor project will be building a chicken coop. Whether or not we have the space to have goats and ducks will be another question but no matter what, the end goal is to have my own little farm one day like I had as a young girl growing up so I can give my children the same amazing experiences I had as a child.
