Finally, after years of planning, we’re opening The Little Half Acre Homestead for tours! When we moved here almost eight years ago we had three, five and ten year plans for our homestead and – at this point – we’re about four years behind! No matter. What’s important is that we’ve finally made the giant leap to agritourism.
We’re still planning some Farm-to-Table events and workshops but that’s down the road a bit.
We’re offering guided tours on our homestead starting Friday, June 16. A 45 minute guided tour with me is $30 per person. Not to brag, but I am a certified North Carolina gardener now and our little homestead is benefiting from all the great info I received from the very intense course I took.
We’re also offering self guided tours at The Little Half Acre. Click that link to get more info.
I will take you through the property and show you what and how we’re able to do some intense gardening here– despite the rocky, hilly landscape and the red clay soil. We use organic polyculture and permaculture techniques on our half acre homestead and we’d love to share our growing methods with you and encourage you in your own efforts. If we can succeed under these difficult circumstances you can too!
We’ll also discuss keeping chickens and ducks and how rabbits and quail could work well on a small plot. We have some great handouts to give you that will prove invaluable as you grow your own food or make plans to purchase your own homestead property.
Guided tours are available on Fridays and Saturdays beginning June 16th. These tours need to be booked in advance through our website.
Sensible shoes are a must since our homestead is on a somewhat rocky slope. For more information check out the Events tab on our website at TheLittleHalfAcre.com.
