Born and raised in nyc and feel in love with spinning. I always loved animals . I want a farm upstate to have chickens, corriedale sheep and breed french angoras.

lve established a garden in my building. this seems like the perfect place for me to learn about what i wanna do

Does any one wants to escape the city?

too cool... so, just curious, why NYC to farming? Don't get me wrong, I love it, just not that usual for a city kid to want to go live in the country. Why corriedale sheep? I know nothing about sheep. I think a miniature would be more for me.

Thanks everyone for the nice welcomes

I wanted the country life because i find it so much better than the damn city culture. Like tgere is really a dumb status if power by what you where or where you. Etc. corriedale sheep because they are great wool breed and i love to spin and crochet. Or maybe a BFL Flock not sure yet. I need land first lol.

Lol theres chickens a block away from me in a urban garden center but u cant have chickens i live in public housing. :/ I started a garden though but rats have gotten the. Most of stuff so were putting mint in 2mm if i wake up before the rain.

I love educating friends and fam but they just say that im annoying them with my farm dreams.
