The document outlines Scott Hall's homestead plan, which includes goals of being self-sustainable by growing fruits, vegetables, and raising chickens and turkeys to support his household and others. Some challenges are water access, storage, equipment, time management, pest control, and improving the soil. Opportunities include existing infrastructure like a greenhouse, composter, drip irrigation system, chicken coop, and grapevines/rhubarb. The homestead site is located in Florence, Colorado on a 100x50 foot plot with additional space and a sunny field.
3. Brainstorm
• Thinking outside of my box
• Bringing all tools to the table
• Better picture not totally clear but much
better
4. Goals for Homestead
• To manage the space I have to be able to plant
fruits and vegetables as well as raising
chickens and turkeys to support our house as
well as for others. Also to be able to provide
adequate water and nutrients to the soil to
support the vegetables and fruits and
chickens/turkeys. Ultimately to be self
sustainable in providing food to our house as
well as others.
