Introduction for Ambermol
Hello.
I live in the county of Cumbria in the North of England.
I share my home with one husband, two Labrador Retrievers, and a handful of chickens who provide us with fresh eggs.
Every year we raise at least two Rare Breed pigs for our own consumption.
In addition to rearing our own meat and collecting our own eggs, we grow our own vegetables, herbs and fruit.
We like to know where our food comes from. The dream is to be self sufficient but that is difficult to attain in today's world. Meanwhile, we do what we can.
I am a book lover. Not just a reader. I love books themselves.
I own many hats - chef, baker, butcher, bean counter, knitter.... the list is, perhaps, endless.

Sounds like a very fulfilling life and I think self-sufficiency is an achievable and very worthwhile goal to have.

Welcome to PP. Nice to know that you have just one husband
You are living life to the hilt what with all that you are growing. You have enough interests to write on. Waiting.

Thank you for the welcome.
And, yes, many interests including writing - when I get the time!
One husband is more than enough to cope with

I'm not sure about achievable unless, of course, you go 'off grid' but it's a goal we keep in mind.

Do you really? How do I not know that, or do I and have forgotten? Anyway, thanks for the weclome, good to see you.

Selling to Joe Public would be a red tape nightmare but we can supply friends and family
We have in the past but with all the building work we didn't make any this year :/
