We live on 25 acres near Leeston. Our ground can get a bit puggy in the winter but holds well over summer. At present we run cattle, sheep and boer goats. Our latest addition is a clutch of Barnvelder chickens.
We bought the property 8 years ago and continued to live in Christchurch for three years before moving out here to live. Since then we have demolished an old cottage and rebuilt a new house on the same spot and added a couple of new sheds. Hubby loves working with machinery and enjoys making hay and doing other tractor work. I love being with the animals and am enjoying the challenge of starting a boer goat stud.
