Why I'm Getting Dirty:  The Micro Farm Project is a beautiful place where veggies, flowers, fruit, and herbs grow and our small livestock animals provide us with fun and food. We are creating a tiny farm on our urban lot and are always experimenting with ways for our family to become more self-reliant and efficient. Our practices are slowly becoming more sustainable, replenishing our little piece of land, our health and our spirits. We invite others to join us and learn step-by-step to create a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle.

    Loving the fact that you have turkeys. I love turkeys! I'm trying to sneak a few into my yard--and a goat.

    We've got an acre up north(my picture) from us where we want to retire. Hopefully we'll do all our learning here first.
    We've got the garden and chickens so far. I will visit your tutorial! I can hardly wait until we get the goats!

    I love your what you're doing. I need to get away from the homeowners association so I can get a goat and some chickens too. Congrats!

    Thank you for all of your nice comments, and I wil post photos of the gardens soon. We are preparing for a local chicken coop tour, Tour de Coops, so everything if getting spruced up right now. Here in AZ, we are in our fall planting season, so the gardens are working and looking lovely.
