I brought both of my kids up on farms or lifestyle blocks - My son has gone on to farming as a career but my daughter is a through and through town girl lol We spent a lot of years rearing calves, lambs, goats, chickens and turkeys. We went eeling in the creek and had loads of fun on atv's etc. We built a house to live in while staying in caravans (which was fun), fenced and fertilised, planted and generally tried to make it a better place to live. I wouldn't trade my life for any other kind. :D
