Howdy and welcome to the group! I lived in Texas for about 10 years though it seemed like 100. Still have lots of family there which is as good a reason as any not to ever go back. LOL!
Hi Everyone!
I'm new to this forum, although I've been reading many of your posts over the last few weeks.
I currently hail from Rockford, IL (downtown), but am originally from a small farm in Virginia. With the pseudo-cooperation of my family, I am slowly working towards becoming as self sufficient as possible in order to reduce my dependency on money and remove myself from corporate America. I have a DH, DS, DD, 4 dogs, and finally a plot of land in the city on which to start growing my own food. I look forward to reading as much as I can of all your posts.
One question - has anyone here challenged their city council in order to have chickens on their property? If so, how'd it go? Any tips you could offer?
