Don’t they think that they have the right to everything you own and earn, even your body? Sure looked like it in 2020.
Yeah. 2020 was when I saw the writing on the wall and left the city.

I wasn’t quite in that situation, myself, however, a farm in the country with a mote around it would be perfect!

Listen to Joe Salatin to get inspired!
Brilliant podcast about regenerative farming.
Relates too so well to your post the other day about 'do cows have feelings'.

He has some really great ideas. I would like to be able to revive land as he does. Where I live, we have a few inches of topsoil and everything under that is really beautiful sand — it would be great for rammed earth buildings but not a lot else.

Yes am on similar land with mostly stone/rocks (glacial and river wash) beneath the thin layer of windblown topsoil- however am hoping with trees and livestock to get things working. Already the soil is improving and have a garden growing most of our vegetables. Previously the land was a monoculture and the soil is seriously depleted but over time it can be rebuilt. Just digging kitchen scraps and manure into the soil gets things started.

If you are near a place that has cattle, the manure is really a great amendment. It also helps a lot when you are trying to hurry composting along.

Yes we're almost surrounded by grass fed dairy farms and next year hoping to buy a few of the day old calves they take from the cows at birth and raise them on our land for beef, and for the soil.
