Do you like fresh eggs and vegetables? I have 1.5 acres and need help with gardening and chickens. I supply the land and seeds and water and feed and chickens, and you supply the love and care for the birds and beans. We all benefit! Best if you know what you are doing and are a competent gardener. I have kids too so we can help with labor if you give us the grand plan! Also looking for a lot of house plants, want to make my sun room/porch into more of an earthship if you have plants to donate/rehome! DM only please. South Fort Collins, great location.
