One of our greatest joys is providing our own meat for our family (and some family members) from our own land. We know exactly what goes into our meat, how the animals are treated and are blessed by the cycle of it all.

But it all takes planning and not every space will work for every type of livestock (or every person, there's a reason I don't have goats currently).

Here's how we plan out our livestock for the year. This information is extremely helpful now, OR if you're looking at property in the future.
