    an allotment would be to small. currently i rent a field away from my house which i have 3 hen runs with approx 40 hens an area for 2 pigs. 1 area approx 3/4 acre for growing vegetables, 1 large strawberry bed and 1 large polytunnel. this year i intended to increase the berries i grow and ad a cut flower bed. this sustains my family all year round and any excess is sold to a local supermarket and on the farmers market. i forgot to mention i have approx 20 turkeys each xmas.

    thanks for the idea anyway
