Dog and goats require attention morning and night, everyone else is just in the morning. The entire routine takes about 1 1/2 hours in the morning and 1/2 hour at night leaving lots of time to enjoy the area. The only atypical activity is milking the goats and once you have done it once, it's not daunting.

Our garden

Important info

Be aware-the property/terrain is uneven from our driveway throughout the property. We are about 15 minutes from town, with 7-10 minutes required getting to the end of our driveway from the house. We have never needed 4WD or chains to access, but I guess there could always be a first.
