Follow our ambitious garden projects, from vineyards to formal gardens, tropical plants to self-sustainability. Our project is enormous and our enthusiasm contagious. We'd love you to join us.

    I’m writing a comment to pin to the top. Not to tell you anything interesting, just to hide spoilers for people who want to guess along through the video to see what we really bought, because many of the comments, understandably, reveal the answer! So if you want to keep the surprise for the end, avoid the comments section!!!

    I just want to let you know, that for all the hard graft you put into your home, the return will be generational, and that is something to be very proud of.

    A suggestion- if you tie colored ribbon at intervals along the wire it will be much more visible to yourselves and animals. Also if it gets compromised- much easier to spot at a distance. The twisted wire gate is easy to see, it has more bulk. Enjoy your new “hamsters”, lol.

    Well aren’t you going to have some fun! My son and DIL have a bull, cow and two bull calves. Got them a couple years ago. An electric fence does no good with them they just mow it down Ha! They head over to the neighbors and have to be rounded up. Last spring when the cow had her second calf they didn’t even know she was pregnant. My son went out in the morning to feed them and there was the new calf. They are good at eating what ever is around to munch on. And they are cute.

    There are some Highland Cattle in America, named Kylo and Hammish and they need/love being brushed. I have been thinking for a while that all the mowing people are having to do is in part because people don't have grass converters, whether chickens, geese, cows, horses, etc.

    But, with the cost and work involved, I absolutely understand how important " pulling their own weight or earning their keep is! They reallyare very cute. They seem to tolerate being touched, that's wonderful with kids.
