“Good fences make good neighbors.” A good fence serves three purposes:
Keep your animals in where you want them.
Allow you to enrich your pastures for soil, environmental, animal, and our own health
Keep unwanted animals (and people) out.
The answers to these questions will guide you in what your fences need to look like.
- What animals are you fencing in/out?
- What’s your purpose and intention with your fencing?
- How long do you need your fence to function?
- What’s the lay of your land?
Don’t skimp on this aspect of your homestead farm. A good fence makes all the difference in how you sleep at night, how aesthetic and therefore enjoyable your place is, and how much peace you enjoy. Since you’ve invested in this course, we assume you do not enjoy the cardio exercise of chasing animals and apologizing to irate neighbors. You’re in the right place.
