     @Richard Room for activities. I sit on 15 acres but it's all (junk) woods.

     I'd ultimately like half of it to become pasture, and the other half agricultural.

     Chicken and steers will be in pasture, pigs rotated in the woods.

     This year, my only goal is to clean up the land and plan for the next year though. Doubt I'll do animals this year; won't have time.

     @eriner what are the ultimate plans for the land? Getting a cow or pigs?

     I've decided to hire a forestry mulcher (skidsteer with a big grinder) to cut down the junk on 2-3 acres of my land.

     All my land is currently new growth (mostly invasive) trees. Was pasture 25 years ago.

     I've been thinking about this for the last 3 years but I think it's finally time to just do it. Expensive, but it's going to make the land usable.

     I'll cut down the big stuff and chop it for firewood myself.
