Animal Husbandry
Please read the following - articles & information
are
linked below.
Visitors to the Quaker Hill Farm web site come from all over the world. We are grateful for the
opportunity
to share our life and ideals of holistic natural farming practices and traditional homesteading
with so many of you.
While we do host workshops on a variety of subjects related to homesteading, cooking,
cheesemaking, soapmaking and more,
we also know that it is
not always possible for some of our visitors to personally visit us and participate in
a workshop or class. So, I decided to feature "how-to" articles related to Animal Husbandry
specifically
for goats, sheep, chickens, ducks and bees as well as Homesteading articles and Cooking articles
(cheesemaking, soapmaking and more).
This will be an ongoing project that will take time to fully develop as I write and photograph
one topic at a time. Needless to say, this project is very time consuming!
