That is truly awesome to see! Thank you so much for sharing this process with the rest of us unworthy individuals...... I was showing my wife the pics and she is just in love with your farm and the amount of land you have. How many acres do you have down there in NC? We have been down that way to Kiawah SC and it really is very beautiful country down your way with still significant amounts of virgin untouched land available. Our property taxes here in CT. are $6,000 a year for a tiny 1/4 acre lot and that isn't much land with neighbors all around us. She was checking some listings in Vermont and she said the taxes were $1,100 a year for 60+ acres or something crazy like that. I would guess you don't have to pay much down there either plus with all of that land you don't have any worries about bugging the neighbors with all the noise. Please do keep the progress pics and story going.
