Re: flower farm/llamas

Thank you Martha...I will keep you posted. We have 25 acres, but also cattle and horses (and now my husband is getting into llamas too)...so I'm limited to about 3-4 workable acres for now - which is PLENTY because I can't really do more than five acres without hiring some kind of help. Gonna start slow until I can do this full time and quit my legal job.

Anybody on this list want some llama wool? We shear once a year (early summer) and if anybody wants it let me know.

Jesse,
Congratulations on this wonderful new adventure! How exciting! I have about
a half acre in full sun, just waiting for me to do something with it
someday, and this is one of the things I am considering. Please let us all
know how it goes. Best of luck!
Martha
